I'm wondering: Are you keeping your hands clean? Are you possibly staying a bit clearer from an individual if they're panting and/or coughing nearby? Are you boosting your immunity BECAUSE you're finding time to exercise in your free time?

If so, I'm guessing a LOT of people could also follow such practices and not need a vaccination?????

Or, as everyone seems to say: Guys like you and I are just LUCKY so far!!!
Believe it or not, I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary. I do not wear a mask at the gym or anywhere else I can get away from it. I do sanitize gym equipment most of the time for what it's worth. I'd say that out in DuPage County at least half the people in the gym do not have masks on. It's like a breath of fresh air.

What's keeping me safe? Either some sort of natural immunity or a combination of an excellent diet and a high level fitness.

Chicago South Sider, my man!

So it sounds like you're using the same healthy, courteous, AND good sense logic that you probably applied even BEFORE Covid was a thing!

...

Additionally, I would be a proponent to everyone to really examine what you put into your body, regarding food and drink, in order to boost your immune system, and stay mentally and physically healthier!

Wishing you all the best. I heard you got the snow today, for once, and we did not up here!

Take care everyone. Be healthy and happy!!!

What's your golden threshold at which mandates should be dropped? Seems like most countries were attempting to get to 100% at one time, now most of these countries are obviously abandoning that idea and embracing that that will never happen and that's fine.
I'm not saying its sufficient, the countries you guys are posting are saying its sufficient.

It may all be a moot point. Omicron is so contagious that pretty much everyone who doesn't get vaccinated is going to get Omicron and hopefully recover and develop antibodies against Covid the same as if they were vaccinated.

Vaccinated people will get Omnicron, too, just like they got the other strains. In case you missed it, they changed the narrative on the vaccines. Now, the vaccines don't stop you from catching or spreading Covid. They only help with your symptoms. That had to change their sales pitch a bit afterwards. Now, the narrative is to protect yourself, which is what I've been saying from the beginning. Also, some people are simply immune to Covid and will never catch it.

They've flip-flopped so much on this I'm surprised anyone still listens. Anyway, this pandemic is over as far as I'm concerned.

This is America, Jay. The average man is 5'9", has a 40 inch waist and weighs 198lbs! The average woman is 5'4", has a whopping 38 inch waist and weighs 176lbs. That should tell you everything you need to know about what people put in their bodies.

A lot of Illinois residents are going to be upset about this. They prefer to be subjugated.
