Over 400,000 people died in the US. Remember the refrigerated trucks full of dead people outside of Elmhurst Hospital ? I do.
I know of a few young people in perfect health who passed from the disease. I never understood what the big deal was about wearing a mask. Yeah it makes my glasses fog up. That's about it.

Exactly. It’s just all political. And that’s the sad part.

It’s a shame that those who proposed dingbat and faux Covid policies - such as closing schools - have never apologized to the millions of little victims.

I don’t need anyone to protect me from getting Covid. I had it and I have plenty of antibodies. So, I’m good. Every man for himself. Do you turn off their car when they are waiting in the bank drive thru? All of that carbon dioxide could kill all of us. No one cares about the next guy and lets their car run. It’s no different. Same for people who pour motor oil down the street drain or don't recycle or smoke cigarettes, etc.

And I don’t mean to make fun of anyone but wearing a mask I while driving alone is downright insane.

OK. I figured it out. You are the president of 3M. Your insistence of wearing masks 24/7 is disturbing. I am convinced that you are either a troll or have severe anxieties. If the latter, I hope you get the help you need. If the former, and even if not, i will no longer waste my time by responding to your posts.

unless you had a very costly neutralizing antibody test ,which insurance won’t pay for to determine anti body level you don’t know a thing .

most labs cannot even do what’s called a neutralizing antibody test for covid antibody levels .

that test the labs do is only to see if you had a reaction to the covid virus and triggered antibodies not the level of protection .

during delta the red cross stopped taking blood for convalescing plasma after six months from date of infection because anti body protection was all over the map

I dont need protection from you and I didnt ask for protection from you or anyone else.
Only me, myself and I are responsible for myself.

Stop with the ventilator crap... that was proven completely false when emperor cuomo cried he needs 120,000 of them.

Health care providers have been "breathing their own breath" since surgical masks were invented.
Exposure creates antibodies....

Again, do you see health professionals wearing them all day... NO. they take those f'ers off as soon as they can.

again if people were meant to wear masks nature would have adapted us to it/

Mouth and dental problems, breathing in your own CO2 and germs. Unable to read people's facial expressions which is a a part of language..
