My VERY CAREFUL retired doctor sweetie has it. She tested positive 2 weeks ago. If she can catch it, any of us can. (It's a fairly minor case, a couple of quite bad days, and some tedious recovery.)
I am back to a lot of masking and not much going out (no fun without her anyway). Although I was pretty thoroughly exposed to her the day before she tested positive and part of my brain thinks I must be bulletproof-immune if I didn't catch it from her, the smarter part of my brain is all "SHIELDS UP!" and you should probably listen to the smarter part of my brain.
The last time I went to the grocery (~2 wk) there were some people wearing masks. I went today to avoid the Xmas/White Death stampede and wore one, just to prove I'm not an asshole to my fellow humans. I wish someone would've made a comment to me...they'd have regretted it sorely.
ETA--I shouldn't take Gippers son's name in vain b/c he's on the right side of the issue, but I wonder if Ron Jr had gotten AIDS if Gip would've had a come to Jesus moment about HIV?
This wonketteer is just getting back to normal. Had 2 very nasty days, with the worst sore throat from HELL I have ever had. The 'vid ain't playin, people.
China is vastly undervaccinated and their vaccine was itself poor. Their lockdowns also prevented the development of natural immunity. It is a triple whammy.
Here in New York City you can get admitted to a hospital for a hangnail and we are planning for the holiday with masks and vaccines merely being advised.
Even in the Trumpistans and Trumpsylvanias where they are proudly unvaxxed and their post-infection natural immuniuty has conked out by now there is nothing like this.
This guy has no background in infectious disease and is a notorious alarmist and poster of unvetted and decontextualized scarifying.
China is in Hell...but we are not China...and you don't get Americans to cooperate in smart personal measures by yelping about what they can clearly see is not happening to them.
When I wear a mask, I readily point to the nearest surveillance camera and let the MAGA know that these work wonders against the Deep State facial scans. If you try hard enough, you can make them go full burka.
I know four people (including hubby and me) that had covid for the first time, in the last four weeks and we're all careful and vaccinated.

It's not gone, folks.
He should be double masking - he just for his massive forehead
Groomer Gaetz says: "In Florida, if you're still wearing a mask, we just assume you're hideous."
Then why aren’t you….
Nah, too easy.
No kink shaming...

Better to wear a mask and be assumed to be hideous, than to not wear a mask and remove all doubt.
Higher death rates in republican counties. There was never any doubt in my mind that it would pan out this way.
Any attractiveness Gaetz has is only skin deep. Inside, it's all ugly, all the time.
He’s ugly, inside and out.
glad you feel better
I've done the *I am almost at the stop, run back for mask* a few times 😂

Where does Gaetz get one large enough to fit around his head?
