How do you know this? Many people get covid and are asymptomatic and spread the disease, and never know it...
This has been going on for over a year and you still don’t know the basics. Sad. |
I did the antibody test twice.
Do you want to see the results?

So why did you previously post "... Or the millions of children who should have been back in school in August but were held hostage while teachers
unions used Covid as leverage to get better benefits?"

The problem is that you aren’t just risking your life or health, but the life and health of those around you. And while I personally don’t mind
taking acceptable risks, I am not willing to risk the lives of my wife, family or friends.
Even if in relative terms, the chances of them dying or getting seriously ill are small. It is still above my threshold for others.
As for mask wearing, I don’t see that as an assault on my personal freedom, rather as responsibility as a member of a free society and a courtesy to
others.
That is also applies to vaccinations.
And I especially dislike disinformation campaigns that seek to diminish or exaggerate the.risks.

My wife went into her office almost every single day of 2020. The kids went off to college in the fall. She took 4 cross country flights last year.
Grandma stayed home in Ohio.

Because that's what happened in a lot of states.
Newsome kept schools closed while he sent his kids to private schools.

For months you have clearly ridiculed those who support medical recommendations for managing pandemic spread.
You have blatantly bragged about your travel for such monumentally important events as buying a pooch from a puppy mill and somehow justify it as
your socially responsible behaviour supporting amerikan economy.
You have posted that your kids contracted Covid yet you continued to promote travel.....who knows how many people they infected....
I could go on but it is disingenuous for you to pretend to now be a responsible citizen doing his best to prevent pandemic proliferation. Out of one
side of your mouth you have consistently insulted teachers for wanting safe working conditions....and then try to appear to be concerned for their
well-being.
You will likely respond with more insults....but if there is a molecule of self-reflection and integrity in your being you may consider your own
self-centered pontifications. 
Don't believe everything you think....

Florida teachers and teaches in many other states have been safely back in the classroom since August.
Meanwhile the strong teachers union in California tries to leverage Covid to get a benefit that virtually no other profession has.
"California teachers’ latest demand: Free child care - POLITICO" https://www.politico.com/news/2021/04/04/california-teachers...
That is just 1 of a thousand examples showing how bad the school boards and teachers unions have been at the expense of the nation's kids.
Gavin Newsome sends his kids to school every day.

So now you are a political as well as medical expert?
Clearly you are dodging the issue here.
What is your agenda with minimizing covid risks and promoting your vacation travel??
Pray tell....what would have been your administrative policies at such a time?
Don't believe everything you think....

Sure and I bet she wore a mask at work and their were additional safety protocols
And she certainly wore a mask on those cross country flights and may have even had reduced seating like open middle seats
Schools are reopening in California. I suppose history will tell if having them closed was the correct response.
Our president has said it is time to get back to school.
Even governor Newsom has committed to opening schools and with his June 16th open California he told all schools, including community colleges to open
fully in the fall.
Until recently the community colleges were not committing to opening up.
I find it interesting that the school districts are reluctant to commit to reopening without some push down. Seems to be the case in numerous states.
It is pretty evident from Israel snd the Uk vaccinations and immunity from recovering from covid will get us out of this pandemic.
It should be quite a different vibe on July 4th in the United States.

Not sure why you keep comparing Florida to California. Looks like FL and Michigan are currently seeing an increase in the virus.
Are you considering moving to Florida? It's not a great state.
By the way, still not reading real solutions about how to better treat the virus. What Florida is doing is not a real solution.
US Marines: providing enemies of America an opportunity to die for their country since 1775.
What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

Since in the US most COVID deaths are first admitted to a hospital. You can look at COVID admissions and deaths to come up with how likely a person is
to die from COVID.
The chart shows confirmed admissions per 100K the most recent week was 2.6/100K. Note that the 65+ rate (red) and the general rate have been
converging since January! Vaccinations are effective!

Florida is a chithole.
Woke!
