Friends, this stuff baffles me on many levels. All around the nation various local media outlets are reporting on this massive influx of people getting tested, or trying to get tested, for COVID-19. Miles and miles of people suddenly lining up for COVID tests everywhere, it’s weird.
The media is pushing the testing aspect hard right now and hitting the Biden administration for not having a federal system in place to facilitate this massive influx of people needing COVID tests. Without a doubt, that narrative is why Biden told the media today the states have to solve the issue on their own. [More on that later]
In the interim, I asked the question on the Twitter about why people would be lining up for hours to get a COVID test now. What’s the reason? Most of the responses are generally of the same mindset as the original question with people also wondering why. I can identify only a few generally valid reasons, and even then, something still doesn’t make sense.
♦ Some people are required to take a test for work, and with the mandates now beginning to kick in, that seems to make sense. However, does this mean people have to stand in line for hours before every shift? [feel free to chime in on this one]
♦ Some people are required to take a test to travel to a destination that requires a negative test. Again, that seems to make sense, I guess. However, it still seems silly from the perspective of testing is unlikely to stop any infection that can happen at any given moment.
Other than ‘being required’ to take a test for the two reasons above, why would anyone take one?
Why would perfectly healthy people, asymptomatic people, line up to take a COVID test? Is this a reflection of mass delusion as a result of government and media driven fear?
Seriously, what gives?
This response from the line in Orlando, Florida seems nuts:
“Well, I’m heading out of town to Kentucky to visit some family, and I hear omicron has really picked up and is spreading pretty fast,” Orange County resident Dave Roseford said. “So I wanted to go ahead and make sure I had the best guard against that.” (link)
So ‘Dave’ is not sick, doesn’t feel sick, is going to visit people 500 miles away, and wants to find out if he’s COVID positive? Because why?…
Then there’s this response, which is even more nuts, but I appreciate the brutal honesty:
“I can answer this because I live in the Lib Death Star known as Brownstone Brooklyn. They are doing this to tell friends and family whether they are ‘safe’ to be around. It’s an elaborate handshake among the Covidians.” (link)
The White House previously attempted to gain some political advantage with the COVID Omicron panic by declaring “a winter of death” awaits the unvaccinated. It appears to me this administration is now going to reap a massive amount of backlash over a panic they created. Once again proving the axiom that every statement, policy or recommendation, that Joe Biden advocates is the exact opposite of what should be done.
The White House has ordered 500 million test kits for them to distribute saying, “In cases where infected people show symptoms or not, testing is the only way to find out if they have the virus so they can avoid being out and about and potentially spreading the disease.” This would imply the only reason to test is to find out if you are infected, yet if you are asymptomatic (not showing symptoms) then why test?
Could it be the hysteria cannot remain in place if there isn’t a new layer of fear of some sort? As Jordan Schachtel notes: ” COVID cases are the engine of COVID Mania. Take away the testing, and the “crisis” disappears. See: every single nation in the world that doesn’t test widely for COVID. They’re doing just fine with the “plague” issue.”
Let me ask you, what’s going on around your town?
Is this madness and ‘Winter of Death‘ hysteria visible around where you live also?
Yes

URGENT: Abbott BinaxNOW COVID-19 Home Test Kit Contains Lethal Ingredient ~ 12/23/21
https://welovetrump.com/2021/12/23/urgent-abbott-binaxnow-covid-19-home-test-kit-contains-lethal-ingredient/
Good. I posted the same on page 2 here but couldn’t provide a link, though all the info is there. Thank you for providing it.
You’re so welcome, Betsy. I can’t believe these rats are getting by w/this. 🙁
Silly
Insane… Do they all think they have covid ?
Holy Hanna…super spreader. One person in line certainly has it. Makes no sense unless you need it for your job which is effn insane.
They will probably all catch it from one another standing around face to face complaining….same fools that line up for all of the free stuff…
I say it’ll be worth what they paid for it…even less
Actually that’s natural immunity – cheap at any price.
free cheese
It’s a social event.
Everytime I click on a tweet,from my phone it won’t go back to where I was it clicks on the same tweet again. Then when I go back it’s at the beginning of the thread.
Woe is me…sigh.
What we are seeing here is the victims of the mass formation psychosis all accepting simultaneously the bitter pill that…
NO: the “vaccine” will never protect them from getting or spreading the disease that they still imagine is an instant death sentence.
Truth has broken through, and now they are all admitting reality by the fact that they’re trying to test. Panic is clear.
We can only hope they all catch it, survive the cold, and realize next that…
NO: neither the first nor second part of that piece of brainwashing (the instant death sentence bit – especially not for Omicron) is true.
Masks out of doors? Fascinating. If we could ask every person in this line about their vaccination status, what percentage do you think have been jabbed, double jabbed, boosted? It would not surprise me if every single person in this line is on the rona coaster!
Yes…cars lined up for about 1/2 mile at locations on major intersections…I don’t get it…thank you loser media for amplifying the hysteria…
Is this something found mostly in cities?
We have many fine, smart Treepers here who reside in big cities and have managed to hang on to their considerable brains but it does seem as if a lot of this happens in the big cities where so many humans turn into sheeple.
In my very rural area we see none of this and my family who live in rural areas in other states see none of this either.
Yes, it is city’s’ ie Democrats who are in total fear. My sisters both live in cities and are Dems; one lives in fear has already gotten booster races through grocery store so she doesn’t spend time around people…wow..psychotic. Other one live in Texas, but in Austin; she got the original shot but so far no booster. I told her not to get it, and she realizes it is worthless so maybe she will smarten up; and in Texas you don’t have to wear a mask anymore so she is around a looser location than the one outside of Phillie.
I have no idea if this is happening here; I live outside smaller town north of Asheville so if anything is happening with the psychosis it is there.
Believe me when I tell you that its not just big city DemoRats. I know of at least two dozen people (at least 5 ppl in my own extended family) who have been Republican voters and were pro-Trump but now are vaxxed, masked, and fearful.
Despite understanding the benefits of having Trump as president, they are now completely irrational about covid. I can only assume they were fully made captive by the media. They are mostly unapproachable about it – will not consider information that contradicts the narratives they’ve taken to heart. So I do not discuss this with them. At least two or three of them have taken at least one booster.
One relative very close to me…is in imminent danger if losing his middle 6-figure salaried highly technical job…. he refuses to get any jab AND may be refusing the testing – depends on what kind of specimen collection method they will require (example: he has researched and will not allow pharyngeal throat swabs in his body.)
GB, talk to them, but try a different tack. Above all, try and find out where they are getting their news, and post the info here. Is it the local news channel? Cable news? The local newspaper?
The vast majority of them are watching local news channels (Baltimore and Washington DC) and reading the local city newspapers (Baltimore Sun, Washington Times and Washington Post). I was amazed they voted for Trump but these are plain spoken people who don’t hide their opinions. One family is going on the advice of two nurses in the family who both work in big area hospitals and appear (to me) to be completely brainwashed about using only CDC approved treatments.
Maybe there is some sort of formative experience(s) in one’s youth that sets that trend. Could be part of it is being somewhat resistant to peer pressure, or just simply recognizing wisdom when they see it.
Your guesses are as good as mine.
Yet the media is trying to convince us that the Rona is all around us here in the country. More BS. I have seen a couple of cars at the CVS in my town in the line to be tested. If you aren’t feeling sick, why get tested? You are just opening up to more unwanted intrusion by the government in your life.
I had a similar thought. I am beginning to question whether we have badly underestimated the number of people who are watching the legacy media, or reading their newspapers. I cannot square what we are seeing here with the report on CNN’s viewership that was recently released.
maybe they all just want an excuse to get out of the house and socialize with total strangers!
Waiting in line for hours to find out , since you have no symptoms, if you’re sick! They have an illness all right.
Rod Serling (the Twilight Zone); “Picture a vaccine so safe you have to be threatened to take it; for a disease so serious you have to be tested to know you have it “
I think the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of any vax or booster is perfectly illustrated in the cruise industry. Hard to blame the industries current results on the vaccine hesitant when they are not allowed on board. HA!
Is this your local station? Is it the source of the fearmongering on which it is now reporting, or is the panic being driven by others?
Wonder if these people are paid. Nothing would surprise me .
I’m sure of it based upon the agitprop of the left. Put a bell cow or two out there and watch the herd gather.
It would be funny as heck if someone interviewed said when do I get my money for being in this line.
I haven’t seen a surge of testing up here outside seattle. A number of folks I know raced out to get their boosters, then wondered why they weren’t feeling well for a few days. There appears to be the same level of medical naziism that we’ve had for a while, though I see a few more maskless faces, and for the most part there is futility in those trying to be a Karen.
All in all, I’d say we’re waiting till after the first of the year for the next round of terrorize the citizens.
All in all, I hope we’re seeing a significant sea change.
Every one of the panicked people in every one of those lines has finally got it into their titanium skulls (h/t Bongino) that yes, they can get the rona despite all their jabs.
And they can spend all that time in line discussing with the other victims of this particular scam how, and how many times, the “experts” have lied to them about this.
Photos like this, from last year, that were fake, must have played a huge part in the current mass psychosis, which, given it is now shown to be fake, means this mass hypnosis had extensive planning:
Good point!! They did this with the outdoor testing tents when the pandemic psyop got started. They would show long lines on the nightly news, but when people went out the next day to check, testing tents were empty. Just the next stage in the never-ending Covid psyop to usher in the banking cartel’s Great Reset.
Yep, the tractor trailers full of bodies in NY too. Well, if you don’t allow funerals / burials, where do you think they’ll be putting all of those bodies?
sheep.
how much gasoline is being burned while waiting in line . . . and how many of the vehicles are those trucks and SUV’s that use A LOT of gas anyway?
100 Monkey theory (if you get the reference from Religious Cults). Once you get to a hundred in the water they all jump in the hot pool and start washing fruit and grooming.
Here in my little town near Ft. Bragg, there is one, and only one clinic that has had lines for injections. I witnessed it multiple times. Nowhere else have I seen such. Not at the VA hospital. Not at other clinics. Not at the tent clinics in Fayetteville. Organized propaganda tool?
Maybe it has worked and the 100 Monkey theory has been proven once again. Don’t get left out!
Orange County resident Dave Roseford said. “So I wanted to go ahead and make sure I had the best guard against that.”
The test is going to be his best guard😳. Certainly not ivermectin!!☠️
Dave is an idiot and unfortunately reflects what most people think… thanks to the dumb down education system…
and also brain damage from wearing a mask for two years and not getting enough oxygen combined with watching CNN all day.
“Close Encounter of the Third Kind” . . . dead cow scene
Excellent! Perfect fit!
TDS variant? Whatever it is, it’s especially prevalent here in the northeast. Seems like our neighbor spent the morning trying to get tested because her son has the sniffles.
It’s NOT Ebola for crying out loud.
There really is something to be said about a generation that misses out on fighting a real enemy like our parents and grandparents did.
Huddling down in a freezing forest in Northern France in the winter in a ditch with few supplies while the Nazis hit your guys over and over an over again and you having no idea if you were going to live through the night or even the afternoon.
Living through the bombing of London or the Nazi occupation of Paris with little food and no medicine makes a real grown up out of human beings.
These people fearing covid and driving their expensive cars in line to wait by the hundreds for a vax that they have been convinced that is something that it is not are children.
Nothing more than pampered, spoiled and frightened children who have never ever faced a real threat in their lives.
Possibly they think there is a Big Daddy out there somewhere who will give them Magical Protection and this covid test is part of that Magic.
Children who have never really grown up.
Doing what the Big Daddy Protector tells them to do to “keel safe”.
Any thing but thinking for themselves and taking responsibility for their own lives.
#CorruptCorporateMedia variant.
I was in Marietta back in the summer. I passed a testing site that was lined up for blocks, the manager of the store that I was delivering to said it was like that all day, every day.
I wonder how many of those 0eople get tested several times a week.
Hmmmm. Reminds me of the gas lines way back when. The Line-Lovers would wait in line for 3 hours to top-off their gas tanks with 1/2 gallon of gas! WTF! Empty Minds?
Probably all of them Rick.
My town in NorCal is full of covid hysteria… My Son and Grandson were dis-invited to Christmas eve with the in-laws because they weren’t vaxed… His in-laws have all three doses and Son tested to make sure for their sake he didn’t have covid even though he had no symptoms
Where I work if you got exempted from the jab you needed to test twice a week. Now they stopped the rapid tests and require lab results.
So, perhaps it is all a giant marketing ploy to “nudge” people to buy an at-home test . . . then you dont’t need to wait in one of these long lines, burning up expensive gasoline. . . but somehow you can present the result of that test as “proof”?
Everyone is encouraged to “be safe” by requiring covid tests of everyone that comes into your home. What is not discussed is the accuracy of the tests. I have no doubt that they skew towards positive to keep the mania going.
They’re probably spinning the PCR tests at 60 by now.
My kid had a cold. Now my wife has a cold. We are all sitting here thinking, why would we get tested? Does it matter if either have covid? They are sick. Feel really bad, then stay home.
People have been brainwashed and now seem to equate covid with certain death.
F off, all of you who are afraid. We all have roughly 80 years of living. I am astounded that there are so many who have willingly given up two of those 80.
Slam down quercitin, a lot of vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc. That should put whatever it is into check.
So true XO.
No one now days has any back bone or “grit” as my grand pa would say.
When we were kids we had the “hard ” hard measles and were quarantined at home.
We were sick a dogs or worse and cared for by our Mom, Grandma and Aunts mostly with the family doctor checking in once or twice a day.
I remember my youngest brother being wrapped in damp sheets that were kept in the fridge and then a small fan place in front of him because his feve was so high.
The doctor suggested this, possibly to cool his high fever.
We all survived, I was too young to know or understand any anguish my parents might have been going through.
Family pulled together as well as neighbors and friends and no mention about hospitals.
So when I see frantic silly healthy people lined up to be tested for something that they have no symptons for I just do not understand and I never will.
How do these silly people scare so easily?
IMHO no sense worrying now about whether you just got natural immunity.
You can always test that later down the line in various ways. I hear the cheapest way is to donate blood, which would show the antibodies.
“I can answer this because I live in the Lib Death Star known as Brownstone Brooklyn. They are doing this to tell friends and family whether they are ‘safe’ to be around. It’s an elaborate handshake among the Covidians.” (link)
All the kewl kids are getting their red badge of courage. This is all they talk about.
My son is in our motorhome in an RV park near Arcadia Florida and many (not all) of the Canadians are driving him nuts with their holier than thou virtue signalling. Gives their empty lives meaning
COVID has become their religion…they are true believers, in what I am not exactly sure.
Branch Covidians.
I sort of wonder whether they are all forgetting that you can walk out of a testing center and still test positive an hour later.
In CT my daughter , a teacher , tested positive at school testing , a day before xmas ,like a slight cold now fine after couple of days – had home test kit , tested her 2 under 10 year old kids , showed positive ( headache one day ) now both fine – tested her husband , also positive -slight cold but he’s been lying on the couch for 4 days watching tv — yea right ….
And Wouldn’t have known a thing or thought about it much unless tested.
Dear God in Heaven, a grown man with a cold laying on the couch for four days watching TV and all he has is a “slight cold”.
That says a lot about why these people are lined up for this test.
My Dad was bitten by a scorpion once and laid down for one afternoon and was back up all around our ranch in the desert.
His bite by a nasty rattlesnake kept him down for two days but that was all.
He was limping and pale and my Mom was begging him to stay down but he was up and checking the cows and making sure all the wells were pumping and the water was where it should be etc.
No wonder we are where we are in our country when a guy lays on the couch and watches TV for four days with a sniffle.
My Dad is now in a nursing home but still chugging along pretty well at 97 years old.
He walks almost a mile a day, taking it a bit at a time.
He is a 101st Airborne WWII vet if that tells you anything.
what Can I say …. nothing
God bless him. Thank you so much for sharing this little glimpse into your dad’s life. 💕
Humans are a strange bunch. If 2 people just stood in front of a random door, soon hundreds would be lined up behind them.
Look at the Boobs that use to stand in wrap around block lines for Hollyweird movies. Pitch tents in front of Best Buys. 3am lines for Black Friday.
The other day I was in Walgreens to pick up a prescription. Just as I stepped up to the window a lady asked the pharmacist if they had any tests. The pharmacist said there are no test kits within what amounted to about a 50 miles radius.
Here’s the kicker the lady was unmasked as was I. I couldn’t help but think, why would someone who thought they were sick or was around someone who was, be out and about?
Local Atlanta news had a segment about people standing in line for hours. Whatever. It all seems so contrived and stupid.
Anyway no test kits = no option to test or get vaxxed in order to work. It just seems like a way to jerk people around so they give up and get vaxxed.
“It just seems like a way to jerk people around so they give up and get vaxxed.”
No doubt, they want to make this as painful as possible for the un-“vaccinated”.
A marketing lead-in to the Nov 2022 elections.
With The Regime (FJB, et al) followed by FAF, Frenzied-Fauci “everyone is going to die” marketing plays, hyped testing requirements (for bad cold symptoms), etc..
These “new” testing devices; they are set to provide results at what level? Testing for what? Alpha thru Omicron ?
They can play this marketing hype into November. While the shiny-object distract from destruction of America. While Big-Pharma clears billions-$$$.
No bunch of people running for tests right now, or if they are they ain’t tellin’ anyone lol. Most people not donning masks either. Haven’t seen a report today about cases or hospitalizations which had been being pushed statewide daily via Media Mob. Just FauXi trying to get everyone spooked that the un-vaxxed are going to be hospitalized – if we don’t march to his tune, I guess.
one more point. last comment for today. my apologies.
Getting people ‘possibly infected’ with a ‘respiratory virus’ to go to ‘one area’ and ‘wait for long periods of time’ is CRIMINAL. Please think about that critically.
In this case I think it will help the spread and bring about natural immunity in a huge new number.
But yes, if viewed from the legal perspective, absolutely criminal.
IF the jab ONLY mitigates the symptoms of Covid – i.e., does not prevent inspection or spread, how do the jabbed know whether or not they are infected with Covid except by regular testing?
IS this a mass wake-up of the jabbed that they have been suckered? Sooner or later the lid will be blown off of the Covid scamming. And the mob will come for Fauci, Walensky, et al.
EXCELLENT point!
Very true. Mr E.
They can only control the masses for so long and when it is over it is well and truly over.
Check out the stories of the sick and starving Jews who gathered strength when finally freed from the death camps who tore their SS captors apart.
Weak and sick and almost dead they rallied enough strength to kill the guards with their bare hands.
This always comes for those who never think it will.
Yes, I do believe it’s a mass wake-up.
The genie is out of the bottle!
The cat is out of the bag!
The cows have left the barn!
Heh! I wrote “inspection” instead of “infection”. What’s funny, I’ve been retired from quality control inspection for over 20 yers and typing “inspection” is STILL a muscle memory.
Very good observation, thank you. It is my hope that every single person in all of these lines is vaccinated, preferably boosted– and tests positive. As many comments here have noted, we cannot persuade the true believers of their folly, but perhaps, just perhaps, some of them will now have seen the light for themselves.
“if you are asymptomatic (not showing symptoms) then why test?”
So you can do stuff. People know 4 things:
1) The vaccines and boosters are useless as far as preventing contracting the omicron variant. Shots, boosters, no matter. You can still get it just as if you were unvacc’d.
2) The omicron variant is mild, largely asymptomatic, and nothing more than a mild cold in people with normal immune systems.
3) The panic and fear and hair-on-fire screeching about a winter of sickness and death are WAAAAYYY over the top, and no one is listening anymore.
4) There are in most states and cities ridiculous rules and procedures and hoops to jump through just to move around and live your life.
SO – the response, vacc’d or unvacc’d, is “Screw it. I’ll get a negative test result, carry it in my pocket, and I’m goin’ clubbin’ tonight, or whatever the hell else I decide I want to do. And I’ll do the same thing tomorrow, and the day after that, and the day after that, or whenever I want to do something that has restrictions.”
Testing is the hack that lets you get most of your life back, at least outside Florida.
No one is lining up where I live in SW Missouri. This must be a regional thing.
Do you know anyone who is requiring testing for their parties this week? (I do, in blueMA).
If not – I believe you have your answer, and it’s yes!
I live (for my sins) in a blue area in a deep blue state, and it’s suddenly definitely a mania here. Pop-up testing clinics have sprouted all over, and they all have huge lines. The subreddit for my city now has all these people (ASYMPTOMATIC VACCINATED PEOPLE) frantically asking where they can be tested, how long will it take, etc. It’s bizarre.
Perhaps the weirdest thing I’ve seen on the subreddit was a guy asking where he could be tested, because his ex-roommate came by to pick up his things, and the ex-roommate tested positive right afterwards. People told this guy that he should wait a few days to be tested, because if he was infected, the tests wouldn’t catch it right away. Some advised that he only get tested if he gets sick. Now, my question is: if he never shows symptoms, why get tested? And if he does get sick, shouldn’t he stay away from people, rather than go to some crowded public clinic or doctor’s office? And if he’s sick, why does it matter if it’s Omicron or one of the other untold number of viruses floating around?
I am so sick of feeling like I’m trapped in an ungated insane asylum.
I just try to laugh at them all. Don’t always succeed, but luckily even in my blue state, I had a choice between a party of fearful jabbed and a smaller party of nonjabbed+jabbed (but sane, no fear) this weekend.
So I still get to party with much less stress!
” Orange County resident Dave Roseford said. ‘So I wanted to go ahead and make sure I had the best guard against that.’ “
He had just commented prior to this about how fast Omicron is spreading……………...so apparently he thinks that getting tested will do what the shots can’t–keep him from getting covid.
Maybe we need to accept what millions of people are telling us about themselves. They are so misinformed and deceived. They are at the point where they will believe whatever the authorities tell them to believe.
So at this point they believe everyone is going to die of covid.
Covid is picking up speed.
biden will save their lives. He said so last week when he announced he was sending out 14 trillion testing kits and he told everybody to get tested.
Just the week before it was “everybody get shot”…now it’s “everybody get tested”.
The majority of the public is now in that group that asks “How high?” when they are told to jump.
Those whose hold on power depends on deception will always be able to find an audience willing to be deceived.
I think they believe that getting tested will do what the shots failed to do.
FauXi is preaching Omicron is spreading so very rapidly and the un-vaxxed are going to fill up the hospitals this winter. Boo! Be Afraid! Second verse same as the first: FauXi Fear is the latest variant (again).
No New Year’s parties, per Mini-Mengele.
Omicron isn’t spreading rapidly, the testing is. Omicron got into the general population long ago, and probably everybody has it.
Hmm. You are probably correct about some.
But I also think that many of them have finally tumbled to the fact that they could get the virus no matter how many jabs they have had.
Knuckle dragging democrats out in force creating a backdrop for a new narrative in bullshit..
On a smaller scale, but yes. A last ditch effort to prolong the hysteria. More tests equals more cases which leads to more totalitarian tactics to exert control. Oh yes, and to fill the bank accounts of big pharma, and Congress.
My town is doing testing from their public works yard the next 4 Sundays. I’m in whack job Left Massachusetts. I’m unvaxxed and flying under the radar. The new Leftist mayor of Boston is instituting passports for businesses serving the public-another reason to avoid Boston. My own town issued an “advisory” to wear masks indoors. They are afraid to do more since Rino guv Charlie Baker hasn’t mandated it statewide. The mania continues. The experiment in self government holds by a single thread.
I’m glad that Baker 1) is stepping down and 2) doesn’t seem to be playing the Covid Games as assiduously as he was earlier.
Maybe he’s hoping that if he keeps a low enough profile now, everyone will forget about the Solider’s Home down the road.
They need “cases,” badly.
Big shifts are needed to dump FJB, FKH still needs grooming, but it is not smart people they need to convince that she can get things done. Haha, they have to win 22 at all costs anything goes for them.
Just got out of a 3 hour line for a county run test site. The reason I went was that I have symptoms. Have been healthy as can be for over 24 months, now have sore throat, headache, and runny nose.
My wife and I enjoyed Christmas with the family, and we are planning a New Years Eve, gathering also. We are living life, but also need to be sure what I have is only a cold and not Covid with people expected over on Friday. If my test comes back positive are gathering will be canceled. Seems only proper and responsible.
If you tested positive for any ole cold virus, would you cancel your party?
Given the inaccuracies of the “tests” why? Sore throat? Headache, and runny nose? That’s a good enough reason to reschedule all by itself. We had to reschedule Christmas gettogether because one of my sisters came down with the exact symptoms you note. No need to test. Just stay home and heal and don’t spread it further.
My 2cents.
Rather than waiting in line for 3 hours, you should have went to your local pharmacy to get some zinc/Vitamin C lozenges, facial tissue, and aspirin.
Go to the grocery store and get some Traditional Medicinals throat coat tea.
Try to get some sun or take a Vitamin D supplement.
Hope you feel better, but please use “common sense”!
At this point, the covid is now just a cold. All colds are caused by rino and corona viruses.
South Africa has now declared that testing and quarantines are not needed. That was
over at least weeks ago.
Live your life. Be steadfast. Quit buying into the fear hype.
You could also have flu. That’s what my daughter and I had these past weeks. Flu is also a reason to cancel a gathering.
Head colds are just as contagious as omicron head colds.
It’s become a badge of courage to say you have the virus and were noble enough to tell folks. Of course, it’s just a cold virus. And it will mutate into a bunch of cold viruses, rhinoviruses to add to the over 100 that already exist.
As a pharmacy technician I’m on the front lines of this.
We get take home tests delivered and they are gone in a few short hours.
It is as Sundance says. People want to know they are ‘safe’ to be around.
People have been brainwashed to STOP THE SPREAD. That is powerful. People are obeying. They can’t obey until they know their status….hence the insane run on tests.
I may have had omicron–two days I did nothing but sleep plus runny, sniffly nose with sneezes.
IDGAF.
Everyone is gonna get this.
That’s how it should be.
Everyone gets it. They should be treated. They recover.
That is what will end the plandemic and covid! Not shots!
I wish the media would talk about the recovery rate. Isn’t it something like 99%?
I agree with you
Covid came along (was released) and the entire world lost their freaking mind!
Thanks for the ground report!
I do think work, travel and association with friends and relatives account for most of it.
I’m hopeful that part of it is people are waking up to natural immunity. They’re hopeful they may have been exposed to omicron and not realized it because the symptoms are very mild. This time of year I imagine most of us have had a sniffle or coughed a few times.
Maybe they are banking on natural immunity?
I have a couple of unjabbed friends who really want natural immunity! In blueMA there are probably quite a few independents like that…
Come to think of it, some of them may be getting into the lines because that’s the highest chance to catch the Moronic. Never thought of that.
But what I’ve read is that the jabbed can never get real unadulterated immunity again – or maybe they can, but it would require somehow clearing all the jab residue out somehow…I haven’t seen enough evidence to understand either way on this point…
Empty lives wanting their 5 minutes of fame on unsocial media.
