We could have changed the policies for other major illnesses, as well as covid. But no, instead we're going to have the same bad policies for other major illnesses as for covid.

Why do you want kids to be deprived of education for a sniffly nose?

Why do you describe influenza and covid as "a sniffly nose"?

Because often covid is just that. Barely any symptoms...or even no symptoms. Influenza can also present as mild in someone who has been vaccinated.

And the person with the "sniffly nose" from covid goes to school or work and infects someone else with covid, who then gets major symptoms, because that's how infectious diseases work. They're diseases, which are infectious. So yes, I do want kids to be deprived of education while they are infectious with a disease that can make people seriously ill.

Most people don't know they're infectious. Simply out, it isn't possible to prevent people from ever getting sick.

Most people who are sick with an infectious disease don't know they're infectious? Wow.

Correct- they don't. They're either asymptomatic or presymptomatic. Are you just learning that now?

So it's ok for people who have symptoms and know they're infectious to go out and spread a disease because there are other people who may have the disease and be infectious without knowing it? Bonkers.

It is truly amazing to see that the number of Covidians out there continue to wring their hands over a few germs. Just wear your mask and let us live our lives. There are plenty of N95 masks now so you can just protect yourself if you are afraid. There's also Door Dash and Whole Foods delivery. You can stay home forever!!

I’ll tell you what. You stay home when you are sick. This is nothing new and has always been recommended even before covid. You must live in a cave or are incredibly stupid. Or both.

This. If you leave your house and breathe shared air, you’re going to be exposed to covid repeatedly in your lifetime. You’ve either built up immunity to it (through exposure) or you haven’t and you will get sick.

I only stay home if I feel too awful to go out. If I can function, I am at the grocery store and other places. Wear your mask if you are afraid of germs.

I’m afraid being physically sick is not your issue. Mentally, however…

If one is sick and knows it, surely they stay home. That’s basic decent behavior. It’s not a new trend.

Why are you angry about life? What compels you to want to harm people?
Does it ever satisfy you for any length of time?

Settle down.
