Unfortunately a very close relative of my wife just died in February 15th from Covid…. She was fully vaccinated and boosted, so to be honest, this has not reached its end yet, and the true is that thousands of people is still dying worldwide day to day, so this is still a roulette (although we agree or not), that’s the ugly and raw true. So better to keep care of ourselves, given that we don’t know how well our bodies will react to a contagion even if we are fully vaccinated.
PLEASE NOTE: I’m not justifying to be afraid, I’m just talking about keeping those cares which allows us to meet a reasonable balance between being safe and feel comfortable ourselves.
Fear, such as fear of death or fear of long-term health consequences, is RATIONAL.
First off, my condolences. Secondly, that is the problem with masks and the "vaccine". You can still wear one or four and get it. You can be "vaccinated" and boosted...and still get it. I for one would love to see what the pre existing conditions were of those that have died of covid. Could it have been a contributing factor...sure. I have seen so many people that are not wearing masks properly...or they wear the same one for days on end. Depending on the mask, they only last 4-8 hours. It depends on the box statement. People were wearing knitted masks...I don't know what that would stop.
I had a friend that died as well of covid. He also had copd. It begs to question: which did he really die of...covid? Or copd? or both? I think the certificate said covid...but is that really true? Was it a contributing factor? Sure. Until we are told the truth of people that died that had pre existing conditions or not...can anyone say for certain?
IF you look at the shot record for the "vaccine"...there are more than two lines for the shots...was this the plan all along? Or were they not certain that 2 shots would do what they thought it would do? No one will ever say in this life time.
You’re basically declaring that some people don’t deserve to be protected or their deaths counted because of “preexisting conditions”.
If other people are already vaccinated and masked, why do you care what the rest of the people do?
Because people with immune system deficits are forced to rely on those AROUND THEM being cautious and giving a damn about them.
I hate when I read these discussions and feel compelled to get into arguments over it... But I feel the need to at least say this, in defense of many other people who commented here:
If you or someone you know suffers from a compromised immune system due to a chronic illness or disease? Then obviously, that's a special case! These people are at a high risk of dying if they catch anything that's going around in the general public. This was true long before COVID.
It's far from "not giving a damn" about them to say that logically, they're going to have to take precautions for their OWN health that the rest of the population shouldn't be "on the hook" to take on their behalf.
They’re at risk of other things beyond covid, yes. They DO take precautions of their own, but now you’re expecting them to never go out in public again, because there’s an infectious agent coursing through our civilization that wasn’t there before, and a political decision has been made to act like the pandemic is over.
Covid is a particularly exceptional risk, that has had us IN A STATE OF PANDEMIC, in terms of its presence/availability and its risk factor to everyone, let alone vulnerable people.
We live in a society. The whole POINT is that we HELP EACH OTHER.
I’ve said enough. I’m closing this tab for my own sanity. If people already can’t be bothered to think about others, me chiding them won’t do a damned thing to change their ways. It’s grotesque and depressing.
