In communities across the United States, outbreaks have occurred in recent weeks at preschools, summer camps and office buildings.

Not buying crazy, this time.
Let’s just all get it and get it over with.

We haven’t heard anything among coworkers, relatives, friends.
Yawn
Fool us once.
If you want to live long and prosper it is very easy to accomplish:
Ignore all the “experts”.
it’s called Cold & Flu Season, just like every other year...
The sky is falling!! The sky is falling!!
It’s around, so is the flu, so are Winter colds.
Carry on.
Not playing that BS again.
More than zero.
I wasn’t fooled, just angry.
My husband and I got very sick in late December, and I relapsed in January. Something BAD was going around; and it wasn’t Covid.
People dropping dead in the streets ?
Cue the death count...
Yes, NYT, it is over. It is so over.
I know two people that had a severe illness in the past month or so, bad sore throat, bed for days. Not strep and not covid.
Bring on COVID 2, leftists. May as well get CW-II up and done.
“People dropping dead in the streets ?’
Yup, the media and CDC.
