dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 The US has reached 1 million deaths due to covid. CNN had the numbers going up again. I didn't think Covid would go away fast, but I was hoping it wouldn't last this long either. China still shut down and prices are way up for gas and food. I think Texas gas is now over $4.00 a gallon. Luckily I work from home and my parents don't go out much. Pretty soon we may have to fast from eating for a day or so. Crazy times for all of us.

Multi-Country – Acute, severe hepatitis of unknown origin in children (who.int) While adenovirus is currently one hypothesis as the underlying cause, it does not fully explain the severity of the clinical picture. Infection with adenovirus type 41, the implicated adenovirus type, has not previously been linked to such a clinical presentation. COVID-19 adenovirus vector vaccines (United States and Canada: Authorized for use): Drug information - UpToDate Health Canada has approved AstraZeneca's COVID-19 Vaccine (adenovirus vector) and Janssen's (Johnson & Johnson) COVID-19 vaccine (adenovirus vector). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Numbers are up in Dallas. Not surprised since I don't see many people wearing masks anymore. No one ever said covid was completely gone, but many people act like it is. On 5/15/2022 at 11:53 PM, IndiannaRose said: Hmm. You’re in a perpetual loop of paranoia and fear. No being realistic and safe. I don't think because some people think covid is gone that it's safe to do whatever you want to do and not get vaccinated. Better safe than sorry later on. I have a child and parents to think about and I want to be safe and them safe to. You do you and I'll do me. Let's see who stays safer and healthier.

grouse Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Well here we are then, I somehow managed to avoid contracting Covid for the past 2.5 years but it finally caught me last week. It started out as just a bad case of the flu untill I started running a dangerously high fever for a good two days in a row(had to get medication to get the fever under control). It knocked me right of my feet. luckily im on the mend now, this virus is still not something to joke around with. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downzy Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 On 5/7/2022 at 6:13 AM, Sisyphus said: It's absolutely incredible how despite the rising cases covid has completely taken a back seat since the war in Ukraine started. Might have something to do with the fact that highly vaccinated populations are not seeing drastic increases in hospitalizations and deaths. The vaccines have rendered covid (for the most part) what conspiracy theorists have been arguing for the better part of two years - no worse than the flu (in fact, a vaccinated person is less likely to due from covid-19 than they are of the flu at this point). On 5/7/2022 at 6:13 AM, Sisyphus said: We've had parliamentary elections in April and it was laughable to see how insignificant covid suddenly became for those vying for power. No more talk of mandatory vaccinations and no more "safety" measures. Go figure. Yeah, amazing what a vaccinated population will yield with respect to what matters to them now! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scream of the Butterfly Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I'm still fully unvaccinated and still haven't experienced any sign of this disease. Either I've managed to avoid it altogether or I've had it so mild/symptomless that I didn't know I had it. I wasn't certain of it at the time, but I'm now quite confident that not getting vaccinated last year was the right decision for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulMonster Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 About 300k lives would have been spared in the US if everyone there had been vaccinated: https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2022/05/13/1098071284/this-is-how-many-lives-could-have-been-saved-with-covid-vaccinations-in-each-sta?t=1654438582886 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still wear my mask since I have no idea who is vaccinated and who isn't. Pretty soon it'll be flu season again and time for another shot. it's never ending. With the war in Ukraine and the shootings in Uvalde and other states it seems covid is on the back burner now, but people are still getting sick. Babies can't get their formula and another illness is going around that is effecting children. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How stupid must you be to suggest that a disease that has killed more than 1 million people in your country is created by the media? There are more than 80k new cases per day in the US, and it is increasing. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a heart attack because you overeat, but it just so happens you have covid that is not a covid death! Yet the Government says it is and pays the hospitals thousands extra. The media are liars and are bedfellows with the democrat party. I'm still alive and so are the others I know who have never been vaxxed. Covid was a thing, but it's not anymore. You should get used to that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
