It really was complete insanity. Or more like a mixture of insanity and stupidity.

The flu is like 80% as dangerous as covid, and is actually more dangerous for kids and healthy people than covid, but nobody ever acted like the sky was falling because you aren't wearing your "flu mask" when you go to the store. I understand the hysteria at the beginning, but after like August of 2020 it was just ridiculous to still be behaving that way.

Yeah looking back its funny how unhinged we all were.

I was all in on masks.

"j-j-j-just weart a mask p-p-pleeeeeease!!!!! STOP BEING RUDE!!!!"
-me

lmao for what, to avoid a cold.

I heard when you had to get intubated they basically were like, "fuck em kill em and give the bed to the next patient" and they would have been fine if they were never even intubated.

I masked longer than most but not because I thought it protected me from others but the opposite.

Haven't made one of these in awhile, remind me in a year to stumble through the WONDER tool for 2024. It's trending in the right direction.

I was yearning for the Victorian days when i could cast aspersions at people who did not obey the social responsibilities and have them clad by the thumbs in shackles!

Shit-takes like this prove you never had anyone in your life get really bad Covid.

My coworker, a healthy 45 year old man who is physically fit and eats an extremely healthy diet was on his fucking deathbed from Covid. This guy was the pinnacle of health. He never fully recovered - still experiences the brain fog, trouble breathing and lack of energy to this day.

This was very early on, maybe June 2020 when this happened. There are so many stories of people like him. It didn't just kill the feeble elderly people.

If he lives today, it wasn't his deathbed.

meanwhile in 2020 when I got covid, I was the picture of poor self-care and a lack of physical fitness.. and covid, to me, was just a really bad cough, sore throat and congestion lol

He was in a coma. His family was prepared for his death. Everybody in the office came to grips with losing this guy as a friend and colleague. He made a miraculous recovery, but like I said - he never fully recovered.

Poor fucking you. How many times have you felt in danger around a man? Do you have a wife? Daughters?

I've never felt in danger from anyone different from me.

yeah, we were all unnecessarily freaking out and killing people with dark age quality healthcare.
