[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just don’t care anymore. I did all the things they told me to do and still got Covid and it was a bunch of nothing. Sorry but nothing will get me to panic again.

I was one of those who stayed shut inside for 2020 and I now regret it because it was a bunch of fear and nothing more.

Not saying it’s not a bad disease, but I’m treating it like the flu and moving on with living. I took 3 shots, masked all 2020-2021, and I’m sick of being gaslit. [/quote]

You were not gaslit. Unfortunately following the rules wasn’t enough. That’s why so many have fatigue over caring about precautions. Being good isn’t always enough to protect you. To be honest that’s true if pretty much anything. I hear you though. Realize not caring won’t matter to the virus if you cone across it anyway. Hopefully you’ll not get any version though.  [/quote]

I think you totally missed the point.  The PP isn’t angry he got it, he is angry is went to great lengths for a year+ thinking he would be gravely  sick, and it was a cold. [/quote]

That’s pretty simplistic and a bit of retroactive rose colored glasses. It was not a simple cold two years ago. [/quote]

Even so, it is now.  We have vaccines to lessen severity and effective treatment.  But STILL people are wanting everyone to cling to the guidelines, quarantines, restrictions, and mitigation efforts of 2020[/quote]

Clearly you are not keeping up with current variants.  [/quote]

Yeah, like I said, we have treatments, we have vaccines.  You are highly unlikely to be hospitalized.  Of course everyone on here posts how terrible it is.  It isn’t my experience nor the experience of anyone I know IRL.   I just had it a month ago and had this been 2019, I wouldn’t have thought much about it all.  Mild discomfort.  [/quote]

I could not get any treatments.   You think it’s that easy?   And I have health issues.  Still told no.  Told to wait it out and if breathing is an issue and my pulse ox says it is, to go to the er.   I don’t feel well enough to get to the er and spouse also has it and cannot drive me.   We are vaccinated and on the extreme side of cautious and still got it.  This new variant is far worse.   Some good the vaccines did.  This is not mild discomfort.  [/quote]

Yet you’re still posting on Dcum at almost midnight, so it couldn’t be that bad.

What did your doctor say when you asked for a paxlovid prescription? And why didn’t you simply go to a test-to-treat location if you wanted it?[/quote]

They said no and go to the er to be seen.  Yes, it is that bad.   [/quote]
