No more travel?

[LazyHydras]

Was going to get on a plane this Tuesday to go see family for Thanksgiving. Just cancelled my flight. Oh well. Hopefully the vaccine will be ready and distributed to seniors, like my parents, before Christmas.

Why?

Its a great time to travel. Good rates, lots of room on the plane, etc.

Don't be scared like they want you to be.

Yeah, get Covid and bring it home to your families - fewer gifts you'll have to buy at Christmas! Grandma's wish list was too expensive anyway.

Oh god please, you pompous douchebag. "Durr I guess you don't care about your grandma's LIFE". It's his choice if he doesn't want to risk it, but there's this thing where the elderly can die even if they *don't* get covid. I, personally, would feel pretty guilty if I chose not to see my grandma for christmas because of covid and then she died of something else before I ever got to see her again. Jesus lefties can be so god damn callous, and people say it's the right politicizing this

honestly if you have had covid two or three times for now you should be cleared to travel

people who are asymptomatic with low grade cases will spread immunity faster and cause less severe infections than really sick people

should still wear mask and wash hands tho so u spread less virus and give people a chance to catch up with their own immunities.

this isn't really how it works FYI -- the infecting viral load has naught to do with severity of symptoms. there's a hundred million hundred thousand more virus in your body than the init sneeze by the time you get symptoms.

It takes time. Even if it's just hours for 1000 viri to replicate into lots.

There's a few crucial hours there for our bodies to do some critical stuff.

Though it's all purely speculative.

I want my first exposure to be small. I think my first exposure was. No direct coughs. Lots of handwashings . And critically amped immune response due to near death incident. I'm still not sure any of this is real anymore.

Planes are flying, you can go if you want. Should you?

No

Im stuck in this shitty country because people can't put on their masks and social distance

No you're stuck because of hysteria over a disease that turned out to be utterly benign by almost every metric for almost every demographic. Humans are not built to socially distance for a full god damn year. I mean maybe if you're an anti-social introvert sperg in day to day life anyway, it's no big deal. The psychological effects of these measures are very real for a lot of people though.

Masks, sure, easy enough to do. But it's largely symbolic if you keep up with the current research. Unless you have an N-95, wearing dinky little loosely fitted pieces of fabric or paper over your face is barely doing anything.
