That would be very noticable like it was in May of 2021 and only briefly. Hasn't happened since. | ||

I'm not sure if your statement is true (please provide a recent source), but keep in mind that natural immunity requires you to get covid in the first place. | ||

Or is there some point when you think it will become reasonable to be a selfish dickbag? No. It will be reasonable to stop wearing masks when we as a society decide it is no longer essential. Not when some douchebags who think they know better than medical experts decide. For starters we could wait with that until the hospitals are not in danger of being completely overwhelmed anymore. | ||

Public vote so we can get Corona McCovidface @Ye Olde Mod team, thanks for that think it’s the correct call. I’m ok with people bringing in dumb shit here and being corrected, god knows I do it myself. Teel seemed determined to bring in nonsense gotchas they found wherever, not actually engage or expand on said points. There’s a consistency to talking errant nonsense that for me is where the line between being misinformed and trying to misinform people lies | ||

I quite like the idea of a ‘Dave strain’ for example, although knowing how silly people are this could backfire with people bugchasing to get the dubious honour. | ||

There’s a consistency to talking errant nonsense that for me is where the line between being misinformed and trying to misinform people lies Glad you pointed this out. It's probably no surprise that I'm personally for active argument, regardless of how dumb the point is, to draw people closer in understanding each other's perspective and what makes them believe a certain thing over another. It's an entirely different thing to just bring up talking points and not really back up what brings themselves to agree with said points; it's not exactly harmful, but it is annoying.

Suddenly, in the middle of the story I immediately recognized a voice being interviewed so I looked over at the TV to confirm and sure enough they were talking to TLO about the topic.
