    I still haven’t had it yet, but everyone around me has multiple times. So, my current working theory is I am a fully asymptomatic one-man superspreader.

      Even when my wife & son were both in the ER with it, my daughter and I tested negative. I had pneumonia once and then bronchitis a couple times, still tested negative. I’m convinced I have a weird immune system and just won’t ever test positive even if I have it.

        Now that you mention pneumonia, I’ve had this lingering cough since the flu back in February. WTF! Sure it’s almost June and I only cough rarely, maybe one a day at most, but for fucks sake, WTF is that?

    I got it from a fucking forced bullshit work event, 2 nights at a hotel to listen to a bunch of wankers proclaim how awesome their shit smells. Buffet lunch and dinner. Half the group came back with covid. I can’t wait to fuck off into the sunset.

      One thing to note is that from the map it looks like Florida has rising rates whereas all of the others are “likely rising.”

      Either way. Looks like I’ll be masking up when going to crowded places for the next little bit.

        I never stopped. Took 4 years for me to get sick (not covid. anything) and that is a good enough effect for me. Ill see how long I can last without getting anything on this second go round.

          I had it once last year after traveling to Portugal for work. I was largely masked while there but fell asleep without one on the plane home. I generally mask up during winter or when there is a big outbreak in the area.

    Got my booster for the summer last week. It’ll be at full strength by Memorial Day, and should last through Labor Day. I get my fall booster in mid-October: it’s full strength by Halloween and carries me through all the winter holidays. Plus an N95 (of course!).

      Unfortunately KP2 is likely to need its own booster and it’s the dominant variant now. Good work with the n95 though.

      I think I’m going to get my booster tomorrow…plus I’ve heard certain “respected” elements of society mention that the vaccine something 5g…so I’m looking forward to bestest cell reception!

    “Health ‘authorities’ are missing the funding levels and unchecked power they had 4 years ago, and are desperately trying to stay relevant.”

      The article mentions that they also note rates are minimal across the country, hospitalizations are super low, and that there is no reason to believe these news stains will be any more dangerous than what we are currently seeing.

      It’s probably time to wake up and realize that the propaganda you fell for - that these health authorities were simply trying to take control of your life - was actually just fabricated.

      Ah, the unchecked power to suggest, and to have ignored, the idea of wearing a face covering to keep people’s germs slightly more contained?
