I could scream!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This year I had my blended family over for Christmas Eve. Everyone was vaccinated and booster. Minus the grandchildren. Most of us did not wear masks but I felt safe. I just got a damn call that one of them who has tested positive for COVID and while I'm glad he informed us, I'm so pissed!!! He was exposed COVID and he was testing himself for COVID prior to coming to my home. I think he should have told us he was exposed to a COVID person. Am I wrong?!!

Oddly this morning I woke up with a sore throat headache and sinus issues

4. I am not at all concerned about exposure

but I am testing once every week or so anyway.

fully vaxxed and boosted (actually that was the last real chance of exposure... at the mass vax center for my booster shot).

Omicron is so transmissible that we will ALL be exposed to it sooner or later. Only thing we can do is be vaxxed and boosted and try to flatten the spike so that IF we are one of the unlucky few that do get a severe case, there will be hospital beds available with oxygen, etc for us.

8. I keep hearing that

omicron is very transmissible and like you I expect to get it but not die from it.

I try not to get angry on those unvaxxed people but I do.



cheers


Now I have a question; why is Tickle angry at "those unvaxxed people"?  Was there anything in Tickle's story to indicate an unvaccinated person infected anyone of them?

Oh, I know, science.  It's hard.  It's hard to accept the vaccinated are spreading COVID, just like the unvaccinated.  Got it.

You know, all this "I'M GONNA DIE!  I'M GONNA DIE!" hysteria of the primitives is getting somewhat tiresome.

It makes one wish that rather than being paranoia, their fears are true, and they're destined to die in droves.

You're all going to die.

I've never seen a more risk averse group of people gathered together in one spot before the DUmp was created.  Risk is everywhere and you mitigate what you can, but these loons think (like some safety people I've had come on my jobs) that you can mitigate to ZERO.  That is not possible and still do anything.

It boggles the mind, truly.

Oh, you know, it’s not them that are supposed to get it. Only ones that should get it are unvaxxed and vaxxed Republicans, and they’re supposed to not go to the hospital but just die.

When reality crashes into their imaginations, the screaming naturally happens.

I think they would be surprised to learn just how many of their fellow posters are unvaccinated, but are too terrified to admit it.  That should tell DU members something.  There's nothing on this board that I would be afraid to talk about as to a political ideology and I know there are a lot of us with differences.  We seem to hammer them out and move on to the next discussion.

Oh promises promises. DUmmies say their going to die but it never happens. As an example I give you Omaha Steve.

Absolutely 100% WRONG.  The Chinese Wuhan Red Death Coronavirus is NOT a death sentence by any stretch of the imagination, even for feeble minded DUmmies.

Grow up, and put your big boy panties on.  And a very poor mole job by a person with 100 posts at that cesspool.  You tried too hard.

I think the primitive‘s biggest fear, is that omicron is the beginning of the end of the pandemic. The odds are nearly everyone will catch it, almost no one will die from it, and then herd immunity will kick in. I figure by this time next year, Covid will be nearly over. -Along with all the cash and prizes that go with it. DUmmies are going to need to find jobs again.

I have a question for the OP. Who cares? Really... who cares. You might have caught something that has a 98+% survival rate and that might not even exhibit symptoms. Do you fuss over the common cold like this?

So, the family member was exposed, was testing himself and was testing negative, but he should have worried his family with what was looking like a false alarm? He should have taken Armchair Hindsight 101 at Panic DUniversity!

they will from this point on.  Even after covid is far in the rear view mirror, the DUmmies and left will stress and nanny over anything that might make you slightly sick so they can continue to exert control over you with the message that only big government with it's mandates and "free" money can keep you safe from disease.

It's always amazed me how much they armchair quarterback stuff.  Anything happens when a republican is in office and it's; "why didn't they see that coming and do X, Y, and Z, TWICE!!"

Now Biden has allowed 3 new variants into the country (I don't blame him, but DUmmies would have blamed Trump), he's had more people die on his watch WITH 3 vaccines available.  They keep moving the goal posts (much like the Trump administration due to varying circumstances and the learning curve), but somehow when Biden does stuff like tell the American people this doesn't need federal intervention yet STILL keeps the same stupid federal mandates in place, he's somehow brilliant!

It gets under my skin about how blind they are and how willing they are to be fascists.

AND, they won't have an excuse for universal mail-in voting, and all the other tricks that put Muppet Boy in the White House.

Oh, I forgot to add; There is hardly enough testing/tests available.  People are waiting in line for HOURS to get a test that, in some cases, they must have to live their life.  IE; go on vacation, to a concert, work, etc..

PPE is running low.

People don't know whether to shit or go blind, and THAT is all stuff I DO blame on Biden!

That isn't blindness.

That's the mamet principle.

In order for leftists to say the things they say, argue the things they argue, propose the things they propose, and support the things they support, they have to pretend not to know things.

They may not have covid for an excuse, but they have another excuse warming up on deck, guaranteed.

They will at some point, even try to argue that the mail in voting and other tricks were never about covid in the first place.

Just watch.

Muppet boy isn't a bad description, but I prefer Grandpa Abe Simpson or Izzy Mandelbaum (played by Lloyd Bridges) on Seinfeld.

I'm sure after covid, the next excuse to keep mail in voting going is by how much it saves the planet by voters not having to drive their carbon spewing beasts to the polling place when you can just drop your ballot (and any other ballots that were delivered to your house :wink:) into the mailbox while your car rests in the garage.

That’s when we point out how they were all clamoring to not only travel to a CoVid testing site, but wait literally HOURS in line to get tested.

Turn about is fair play.
