A buddy has the rona, hope he gets better but also hope he gets pretty sick first to teach him a lesson for buying into bullshit, hope he doesn't take horse medicine. Wish this was more a pooping or puking illness, easier to make jokes.

Yeah.. me too!.. I certainly don't mind a bout of explosive diarrhea. Feels like a "cleansing"....Hope your buddy gets better.

Perhaps you're right.
I know people who are antivaxxers and some are my friends, we agree to disagree, we have low case counts here though and an almost 90% single dose vaxx rate, we still wear masks and almost everybody complies. The thing I find disturbing about the antivaxx movement is that it's turned into a suicide cult. At this point their public rationalization of their fear and paranoia by spreading bullshit is mostly killing their own kind. It's not like trying to convince an individual, they have a social emotional support network too. We don't have the political component here in Canada and it's reflected in the vaxx rates, the difference is pure politics. Here the antivaxxers are the usual suspects and run the political spectrum. I expect a hard winter in Canada as most of the unvaxxed will be infected, how quickly that happens will determine if the hospitals are overwhelmed or not.

Man.. I really think it's a matter of Freedom of choice. I have vaxxed friends and even family. They don't push me to get vaxxed, or even bring it up. I also have antivaxxer friends. Over the past year, we've travelled to Alaska, been to concerts, been on trains, planes, ubers, airports, Casinos (which Oklahoma has the largest one on the planet), nobody wears masks, or worry about social distancing. Nobody has gotten sick after being previously infected over a year ago. I can't explain it. We've literally tried to get reinfected. ... Now, we may all be dead come this time next month, but we chose to no get vaxxed after initial infection because we do believe (and some of us have tested for the antibodies a year later).. that your body will do it's job IF you're healthy. If I had some sort of immune compromise, I might reconsider.. but I don't. I don't know what's in the vaxx, and I also don't know what's in Advil... which is why I don't take it. Get it, don't get it... it's your choice.

Yeah. What do doctors know.

If they originally "sounded the alarm" at the beginning that we could lose 250,000 people, then why didn't they do that years ago with the Flu?.. Mass media promoting social distancing, mask wearing, flu shots talked about every commercial you see,.... why do they not care about a quarter of a million people?
