How about "Covid Club" for those who enjoy the angry political rhetoric surrounding the efficacy, dangers, and treatment of the Covid Pandemic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dostortas Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 I think “All Things Covid” wraps it up very nicely with a little bow on top. Kudos to whoever decided to give this topic its own forum section. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dichosalocura Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 All things Covid is a perfect title. This is a public forum so we should all have the right to express our opinions freely and without abuse and/or hostility. A civil discourse should always be maintained even after Happy Hour. 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should address that to MC who is the worst offender. Everything he posts on this topic is designed to belittle and mock those who believe in getting vaccinated and masking is the key to getting out of this pandemic. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have read the mod is posting facts. They are obviously not facts you agree with but remember there are two sides to every coin. Just because someone has a different opinion from you doesn't mean they are belittling or mocking anyone. 1 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Face diapers are disgusting and I wear one as little as possible since they are pretty useless anyway, not to mention a great medium for bacterial growth. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not useless IF you are wearing them correctly and they have a minimum of three layers. You do realize that you have to wash them don't you? Many, many factual articles on their benefits. Do some research. You might actually learn something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnMama Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Quote "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan And therein lies the problem. Main stream media - what we used to call corporate media - has been vilified and too many people think sources like Fox News and NewsMax are the only ones telling the truth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudgirl Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 4 hours ago, jhark said: Just because someone has a different opinion from you doesn't mean they are belittling or mocking anyone Stop with the condescension. No one needs you to explain the difference between expressing an opinion and belittling and mocking. Continually referring to masks as face diapers, posting memes comparing vaccine mandates to Nazi Germany, and calling it the "China virus" has nothing to do with expressing one's opinion. It is designed to mock, belittle, inflame, and tout one's superior opinion of themselves. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dichosalocura Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Not all science and sanitary protocols have to do with math. Sorry to burst your bubble. Keeping liquor and pot stores open and closing schools, museums, libraries and gardening stores is also not mathmatical nor logical. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dichosalocura Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 What is up with the leftists calling anybody that even questions the benefits of the sanitary protocols as stupid and as trumpsters and as antivaxers. Just because someone does not want this vaccine that is barely a vaccine that its effectiveness is just 3 or 4 months it does not stop mutation nor stop contagion nor infection rates does not mean he or she is an antivaxer. Maybe some people just don't see the necessity of taking THIS vaccine. Just like many don't get the 50 % effective flu vaccine. Covid is hardly the bubonic plague folks. With Covid you have a 99% survival rate. The draconian mandates is what is rubbing many folks the wrong way. Stop the mandates and let us make our own decisions about our health. 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtnMama Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 I am fully vaxxed. You are 15 times more likely to die from Covid than I am. Most of those deaths are fully preventable. The stress on the health care workers who deal with full ICUs turning away people seeking treatment for things like cancer and broken bones is uncalculatable. You can close your eyes and ears but it doesn't change reality. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtnMama Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 As I have said before, you can get your information from tens of thousands of science and medical professionals worldwide OR you can get your information from a doctor trying to sell supplements on the Internet or get his 15 minutes of fame. You can get information from a GP who has see a few dozen patients with Covid or from an internationally respected doctor who studies reports from peer-reviewed studies conducted all over the world, evaluates all the information and makes suggestions based on of all the factual data. And this is why we wear masks: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
