As one might predict, the mutts are already getting worked up. No mention that this is Bidens fault, because it would most certainly be the fault of the glorius President Donald John Trump. If he were the current White House occupant. Im sure thats how the mutts would frame it.

1. Those free government at-home Covid tests have been invaluable for my family.
I hope everyone here has some on hand. Also, just a reminder--they expire pretty quickly.
Well, not exactly free, but keep telling yourself that.

4. And free N95 masks
At drug stores. Just in case those people claiming Biden has done nothing. We were this close🤏 To only having Ivermectin and bleach to fight this plague. Thank you Joe.
Uh. No. Youre and out and out liar. And you know it. :bird:
And I might add, that if the only measure of success is that Biden has enshrined Drug Stores with masks.. not exactly setting the bar very high. Now are you?

2. The most important thing is to pretend that the pandemic is over
Open the economy!
Return to the office!
Buy all the things!
Exactly how long are we supposed to shut down the country, and or the world? We are still seeing ramifications to this day. But you wouldnt know it if you never come up out of the basement, into what the adults call "the real world".

9. Well, all 3 of our family
Members have recently been into NYC, 2 without masks.
We all have covid now. I have it the worst. Thank goodness I’m fully vaccinated and boosted. But, I feel like crap.
Well thats what you get for not taking the advice of your fellow mutts. But dont worry, you might live. But we need to wait a bit to see if you should be put down. :hammer:

I have never taken a covid test, never received a vaccine, never wore a mask other than the cloth one I bought because it has a Florida Gators logo on it, and never used it unless I had to. To my knowledge I never got covid unless it was so mild I didn't even notice. Another thing I didn't do was I didn't panic.

I'm the same. There was one two week period, however, when milk, no matter how fresh, to me, smelled and tasted sour. Only milk. Never lost sense of smell, never had a fever, no sniffles.
No shot, no booster, no mask (unless I had to to go to the grocery store), no other precautions. Never got it.

You mean, the version that should have been tagged XI but wasn't because it would have drawn too much attention to the genetically modified virus' point of origin?

I stopped updating the file from which all that info cam in September 2020.
Since you're new here, RuralNc, a little background info that kind of explains the above:
* My family has been directly affected by Covid since February 2020; one of our munchkins was attending a university in China, came home for a visit in January 2020, and has not been allowed to return;
* In late January 2020 I could see that Shampeachment 1.0 was about to crash and burn, and knew the Dems would be in search of their next fauxny Hate-Trump issue, and I figured that Covid might be it. So I began following Covid-related news - vaccines, treatments, etc..
* I'm an information packrat - seeking and collecting.
* Contrary to what a couple of people have claimed, here and on another discussion site, my career has nothing to do with anything medical or pharmaceutical, nor do I have - or have I had - any financial dealings with or ties to any medical or pharmaceutical company. IOW, I am not a shill. I wish this "bullet point" had not been made necessary, but a few people seemingly cannot believe I honestly express my honest views concerning Covid vaccines.
More importantly, a belated welcome to the Cave!

What makes it the "worst version"? If it is not more deadly or cause more hospitalizations than how can it be the "worst version"?

Well, to be fair, Biden did tell us that another pandemic is coming. Just in time to keep kids out of school and teacher's unions rolling in dough and spare time.

Bear in mind you can't have a pandemic without PANdemIC

Oh, but you forgot to mention the most important reason!
Vote by mail ... early and often ... because no one should leave their home and God forbid you have to go out where there are germs and dirt and people who don't think like you!!

Oh, I have browsed as a guest for a couple years. Up until recently I couldnt get signed up. I think my email was a problem. I had to create a junk email on another service just to get it going..
You and I conversed previously at the Conservative Underground. I dont even begin to remember my username over there. Was really disappointed when it went belly up. But I get the owners point of view.
More importantly, a belated welcome to the Cave!
Thanks for the welcome.
Since a few others have mentioned it. I too have had Covid. I had it back in the beginning, then just recently. Neither was what I would describe as fun. But certainly not worth shutting the country down for.

And the Greek letter after Xi and Omicron is "Pi", which everyone loves, right? Mmmm...pie.

I was "essential" through the whole stupid thing. Guess I'm a covid zombie at this point. Faux mask, no vaccines, no boosters. Worked while sick evidently and somehow survived that. Just a sore back and the runs for a weekend(same as any other really) the county health department got really annoyed by me saying I was asymptomatic since that was a whole other stack of paperwork
