You've completely missed the point.

Enlighten me then.
posted by AutomatikLots of whining about places people won’t ever visit or live. Austria, Australia, NYC, Cali, etc.
You’re not stepping foot there. Get a hobby.
You know, looking online, it's easy to find stuff about our 24-hour constant news cycle and how people who really consume it can tend to be more stressed, scared, etc. because they dive into it and let it consume them. This place has gotten to be Exhibit A for that over the last year-plus. People just absorbed with finding random articles, comments, blogs, tweets by random sources they don't agree with and acting like each and every one is THE straw that broke the camel's back and there's no coming back from it now.
I mean, sure, initially some of the stuff was interesting and weird and, sure, this site would probably be a total ghost town if not for the constant bitching about whatever's going on in the news cycle, but at some point, you'd think people would possess enough self-awareness to figure out that they're the reason they've gotten more miserable because they're addicted to eating up everything they can find online that tells them how scary everything is.
But have you heard about the 'Rona restrictions in Saudi Arabia or Hungary!?!?!? THE NERVE. RESIST!
If everyone would just shut that constant cycle of info, it would likely disappear as just another infection. Medical professionals would actually start to use all the therapies in the tool bag to trea t patients, deaths would literally stop happening.
Between vaccines and natural immunity, 85% of this country is protected from dying from it. Wasn’t that the plan anyway?
It's the never ending quest to find and post the next link that proves that "I am right and you are wrong".
posted by j_crazyNYC should have different rules. there are 27000 people per sq mile in that city. Ohio for comparison has 93 people per sq mile. It stands to reason the control measures for a viral pandemic would be different in NYC from the measures in Ohio.
Also, i'm with you. the control measure i would employ if i was living in NYC would be to fucking leave. but i understand not everyone has that option.
Exactly the point about NYC. I spent a week there in November. Had to show vax card to get into restaurants, but no other ill effects. The place seemed to me to be the same as it always is. It’s so densely populated, I get why they are hyper about Covid.
Great place to visit, but I’d never live there. V
I know I am very late to this discussion, but I believe all we need to do is shut it down for two weeks and flatten the curve. After that, we will be good.

Haha…flatten the curve - the good ole days. Before Trump and Biden gave Dr Fauci carte Blanche to dictate.

they had to give the walking talking meatball carte blanche. as i've been lead to believe, "if you denigrate fauci, you deny science." - CNN, MSNBC, Harvard, McKinsey, Pelosi, Schumer, Newsome, Cuomo (pre-rape), other Cuomo (also pre-rape :YIKES:), etc.
Well, it didn't seem likely that the POTUS could have a national mandate (which we should have known - most of the stuff the left wanted Trump to do with Covid was illegal).
It will be interesting to see what happens with Governor mandates. I think it may be a similar story beyond goverment offices.
Oregon just put on an permanent indoor mask mandate. Sounds very scientific.
Mandates of any kind are pretty damn unpopular, Even "safe" districts can only afford to lose 6-8% of their voters. And the thing is, voting woke is only cool when it doesn't affect you personally.

The left: Lol you fucking hick, you probably never even stepped foot outside of your state.
Also the left: The US should adopt Sweden/Denkmark/Finland/Germany/insert Western European country’s policy on (insert cherry picked policy)!!!
I have got the flu shot twice in my life. Both times now I have got the flu. I got Influenza A after Thanksgiving. It was a extremely runny nose for a couple days (like water coming out of a sink) then a cough I can’t shake. Tested negative for the rona though so there’s that.

The flu was eradicated two years ago.
I had the Avian flu in 2005 and it was 10 times worse then Covid i got last year
These people have mental health issues

Our newest neighbors decorated outside for Christmas. Looks really nice, as do the Halloween decorations that are still there too.
Those crazy kids!
