The psychosis of trying to find out how to be medically oppressed is so unbelievably lame.

Listen, Buddy. I work in public health and am concerned about America’s obesity rate… however, one think your smug arse needs to remember is that unless you have the good fortune of dropping dead suddenly at some point, you too will become disabled and medically fragile for some portion of your life. It’s insane for any human to have your attitude because time comes for us all.

Don’t care. If I get it, I’ll rest and recover.

And you have no idea what anyone else’s health is.

Just as you would with a STI, even if it doesn’t bother you, try not to spread it.

Exactly. Who are these selfish pricks intentionally spreading a contagious virus around? Try to avoid crowded spaces, wear a mask in the doctor's office, nursing home or daycare, etc. You KNOW what you're supposed to do.

Your post = I am a selfish ahole. None of that was necessary. Especially the gym. How rude to be huffing and puffing around people. Unlike you, some people actually work. They get two weeks of summer vacation that they would prefer not to have COVID for - whether they are at the beach, in Europe or visiting family. You suck.

If you have COVID and feel well enough to work out in the gym, you are well past the infectious stage.

I need to be said. Two week shutdown!

Yes we should all just sit inside for 2 weeks and it will be gone.

Yes, be a decent person and not spread it.

Nice, make everyone else sick.

Thanks for sharing it.

My friend caught it in France and flew back with it, but only tested after coming home.

My son's coworker tested positive. Normal, they work for a camp, and every summer some kid comes down with Covid. My son tested negative, but he's a little sniffy. I'm keeping my eye on those symptoms.

No, but if you know you have an easily transmitted disease you shouldn’t do things that could easily transmit it to people who may not have as cavalier of an attitude as you.

“Genital warts don’t bother me and having unprotected sex with partners who don’t know I have it won’t change my diagnosis!”

Just an anecdote but I also lost a lot of smell/taste from this round of COVID.

Well, this "cold" is affecting me pretty severely as it did my wife and the neighbors.

Why would you not take it seriously? Any other illnesses you don't take seriously?

I would think most illnesses are not to be taken seriously. How would life keep moving if anything else?

Well, typically, when you don't take illnesses seriously, life doesn't keep moving.
