But they might die from or be incapacitated by long covid from multiple infections. We cannot keep getting covid 2-3 times per year and expect to not have detrimental effects.
Why do you think "everyone is sick with something respiratory" currently? Mainly because people's immune systems are shot. This was not normal pre-covid.

I'm 7 times vaxed (2 boosters last fall). Just got covid for the first time. Started paxlovid 24 hours after first symptom. Let me tell you that what I just had with covid was still way worse
than "a cold". It ranked up there with the last time I got the actual Flu 7 years ago (had tamiflu with that as well). This was worse than my flu and my flu, even with tamiflu, knocked me out for a week and another 2-3 weeks before I was anywhere close to a "return to normal". So if I can be that sick after being vaxed/boosted and Paxlovid I really don't want to see how it would be without any of those precautions/aides.

Now note: the last real illness I had was the flu 7 years ago. Nothing else since then except a few very minor colds. So even for the first 3 years where nobody masked (pre covid), I was not continuously sick.
Yet now everyone (who isn't masking when out in public) is routinely sick, almost constantly. What has changed? They've all had covid 2, 3, 4+ times.

I’ve had covid twice and it was worse than a cold but much less worse than the bad flus I’ve had. I’d also choose covid over food poisoning or norovirus. Yeah it sucks to have a new seasonal illness, but sane people adjust. And no, covid does not weaken your immune system.

You're an idiot. Covid can not only weaken your immune system, it can weaken your heart, your organs. Just because you lucked out with a mild case doesn't mean everyone does. People lose their lives and their health long term.

Only someone who is mentally ill or completely evil would infect other people with their deadly sickness.

Ok who let the covid troll out of their cave today? Seriously enough with the covid posts. NO ONE CARES expect the bored troll. And the people who like to F with you.

You are a jerk. Thousands of people are still dying and thousands more are having serious long term health problems from Covid. Get your head out of your arse.

Hahahahaha!

No, I am not a jerk. I spent the last 8 years working as a hospice caregiver and throughout the pandemic I strictly limited my life and any exposures so I would not be a carrier to my medically fragile patients.

I am currently on the last day of 8 days out of work, 12 days total very sick with an upper respiratory virus which morphed into a bacterial infection- my first time sick with any respiratory illness since early 2018 because I worked in healthcare and was scrupulously limiting my life and exposures to protect my patients. Doubtless my long stretch without illness left me ripe for serious illness when I finally found myself in a different work environment full of snotty nosed kids sent to school despite illness.

The pandemic has morphed and the covid virus is now endemic. Natural immunity is abundant and mild illness is predominant. This is basic virology, poster. Human beings have lived with this cycle for millions of years.

Where was your outrage before covid came along, when tens of thousands of children and elders were dying every year from influenza, and people went to work sick because they had to feed their families and our country STILL, after suffering this pandemic, provides crap sick leave requirements as a matter of law??

We cannot prevent every viral disease from spreading - it is simply IMPOSSIBLE. We did enough damage to the economy and our children taking the measures we did from 2020-2022. People will die of viral infections and bacterial infections just as they have done for millions of years. At least we have vaccines, for those intelligent enough to take them.

You are sick because garbage people sent their sick snotty nosed kids to your daycare and you are OK with that? Think about that.

I work with Title I kids whose families are lucky to be housed, they certainly don’t have the resources to take off work for every day their kid is snotty. You are so dripping with privilege it is SICKENING- much more than a viral respiratory infection. Disgusting affluenza, which this board is wallowing in - and your disease is much more lethal than any virus or bacteria.

It’s okay for poor people to get others sick but it’s “privilege” if those who are not poor do the responsible thing and stay home when sick. Got it.

o

F you, you POS.

Shows you that the pp is right and you just mad and embarrassed.

I should be embarrassed why? Because I live my life by actual Christian values and don’t call poor people garbage because they cannot take time off work every single day their kid has a sniffle?

You witches are pure trash.

Actually, you are the one who used the words poor people and garbage.
You also called people witches and pure trash while accusing others of degrading people.
You cemented your hypocrisy and showed you are contrary to Christian values.

No, it was some affluenza afflicted poster who called the people sending their sniffly nosed kids to school GARBAGE PEOPLE that I was reacting to by calling her a POS and witch, and I stand by it. It is EVIL to malign poor people from the comfort of your McMansion and WFH or SAHM lifestyle. I am as sickened by your attitudes as Jesus would be.

I've decided it is what it is; I am not important enough to them to not infect me, so I have adjusted my life accordingly.

It also means I don't frequent businesses I used to go to and I also do not eat out in restaurants. People keep on complaining that the businesses and restaurants around us keep closing, but this is what society has decided.

DP. What do you mean? The PP is correct-- most people aren't testing anymore. Perhaps you are, but most people aren't.

Are you living in a third world country? or are you just stupid?

As I posted before, this CNN article which refers to a WashPo article asserts that the CDC and state health agencies are acknowledging that most people aren't testing for covid anymore:
https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/13/health/covid-i...hange-cdc/index.html

Viral and bacterial infections have been with us for millions upon millions of years, and always will be.

I was 100% on board with the covid guidance from March 2020 on, got all the vaccines including the most recent booster, etc. I am a healthcare worker who is not antiscience or callous in any way toward persons with fragile health, myself included.

But some of you are just INSANE with your attitudes. You need psychological help.

I don't ever remember a time when I went about daily life with a contagious disease that could kill someone else. If I had the flu,measles, chicken pox, i stayed home in quarantine. That was life prior to 2020. Now there are Covid jerks that don't care who they kill but I don't think it's the norm. It's POS people.

Many, possibly even most, illnesses are highly contagious before you exhibit symptoms. So actually, of course you have gone about daily life with a highly contagious illness. Everyone has.
