    Source so I can dunk on libs?

    I’ve been diligently masking and handwashing and I feel a tingle in my throat like there’s an illness coming on :/. I’ve seen exactly two masked people in the entirety of the last year.

      I hope it’s not the Rona. If you do test positive try to get Paxlovid if you can. It stopped my symptoms overnight.

        My husband just spent five days in a Plano hospital. They took a chest xray and a chest CT, and tested him for flu and RSV. Refused - refused - to test him for Covid.
        Which tells me cases are on the rise and the local hospitals don’t want the numbers associated with them.
        Same thing happend two years go at a different Plano hospital. He developed a fever and symptoms while in the hospital recovering from surgery. Hospital absolutely refused to discuss Covid, consider Covid or do a Covid test. Two days later I had Covid. (I had been masking everywhere except occasionally alone in the room with him.)
        Then they tested him. And immediately sent him home so that I, so sick I could barely move, could continue his surgical recovery care at home. Those bastards.

        wtf hospitals just straight up refusing to test for COVID.

          pretty soon the all-cause general mortality rate will be doctored as well

          all data will be even more fake than it already is and millions will die and their deaths will not even be registered in order to keep up the facade of normalcy

          they are already banning masks and banning covid tests

            Which states have made masking illegal? Georgia, North Carolina, and Florida I think? I’m pretty sure a few states have also banned reporting on covid numbers. Florida was foaming at the mouth over it.

        I knew everyone was sick here, but that’s impressive. I’m still curious about the death rate stat.

          haha I don’t know what I was thinking about. For some reason I was focused on the “what is this stomach bug” part of the post and for some reason thought you were asking for a source on that lol

        Which is obscene. Outside of a natural disaster, if you were to just randomly kill off millions of your elderly and immunocompromised population you would be running a negative excess mortality for years.

            I almost got hit by TWO different drivers on Tuesday, within minutes, and immediately encountered THREE other shitty drivers.

            The first was a truck that ignored a stop sign and almost T boned me. The second was some jackass I guess not paying attention behind me because the car in front of me stopped, I stopped, and then I hear screeching brakes behind me and see this car turned at an angle like a foot behind me, almost fucking hit me

            while i was looking behind me processing that, some dipshit turning left across traffic decided now was a good time to squeeeeeze through the narrow gap between my car and the one in front of me, fucking jackass

            Then within literally a minute of that Im being tailgated real bad by some shithead who rides my ass until he peeled off into a turning lane at 60mph

            Then I’m at the store, driving in front of it, car in front of me stops for pedestrians… and then DOESN’T FUCKING MOVE. FOR LIKE, 30 SECONDS, WHILE I’M GOING HEY WHAT THE FUCK, THEN THEY START CREEPING FORWARD AT 2MPH AHHHHHHHH GET OUT OF MY FUCKING WAY

          “The Leftovers” was a show about how 2% of the population vanished into thin air simultaneously. The world goes fucking bananas trying to figure it out and come up with an explanation. It was aired from 2014 to 2017.

          It’s almost comical now that we’re “”“post”“”-covid. It’s killed around 0.4% of the US population. Looking back at the show, the government was way too competent and people were way too rational. Zombie shows/movies have been the same way. Not only do people try to hide or ignore their symptoms, other people will deliberately risk infection to “own the libs” or whatever the fuck.

            zombie shows are about the 1% of the population that is not human cattle
