I still use the 5 second rule when I drop something tasty on the ground. My immune system is fine.Wouldn't not getting sick be detrimental to your immune system? I look at getting sick as my immune system learning something new. Maybe I'm wrong

10 second rule for me. I went 18 months without a sniffle.I still use the 5 second rule when I drop something tasty on the ground. My immune system is fine.
I don't get the flu, never had the flu, don't expect to get this one.I’m more interested in who the best dodge ball players are. I’m in the winners bracket of the amateur pool (vaccinated). Anybody still playing in the professional bracket?
Well there goes this thread. Pretty cool we made it to the second page!Except this country was averaging 900 covid deaths/day before omicron and now we are averaging 2100 covid deaths/day. So it’s NOT nothing.
I had the flu then watched Fox News. I was cured!! I was left wondering why everyone around me was sicker than hell.I don't get the flu, never had the flu, don't expect to get this one.
Seriously doubt your source. And or your source probably spinning, misrepresenting, not putting in context.Except this country was averaging 900 covid deaths/day before omicron and now we are averaging 2100 covid deaths/day. So it’s NOT nothing.
So that Big Pharma solution didn't work so well, eh?Except this country was averaging 900 covid deaths/day before omicron and now we are averaging 2100 covid deaths/day. So it’s NOT nothing.
1. People who are dying are far more likely to be unvaccinated.
Seriously doubt your source. And or your source probably spinning, misrepresenting, not putting in context.
There has been a EXTREMELY LOW death toll in UK, South Africa, and extremely low hospitalizations. Almost no deaths, hospitalizations in UK, South Africa, despite a LOT of cases.
Health Officials in UK, and South Africa, said that it was the most infectious, that everybody in world will probably get it, but that it was comparable to FLU, etc, not deadly, won't hospitalized, etc.
At 2000 deaths a day, that would make it so deadly, that every poster here, posting that they got Omicron should be hospitalized, dying, instead of everyone reporting cold/flu symptoms, and at 2000 a day, that's a pace that would exceed the 600k dead of 2019/2020 year/12 months.
That not BLOODY DAMN LIKELY what is going on.
What's bloody damn likely going on is either the misreporting of news, or misreporting, saying that those that terminally ill, died of car wrecks, etc, had Omicron in them, and we're wrongly reported as Omicron deaths.
Omicron is so Contagious, combined with the bad reporting, bad death counting, bad hospitalization counting, that easily the vast majority of so called Omicron deaths, could easily have the cause of death, cause of hospitalization be something else, and that something else besides, instead of Omicron killed them, and that they just had a mild case of Omicron, at the time that something else, instead of Omicron killed them. That could easily be the case. That or the news, etc, is either lying, making mistakes, misrepresenting, etc
And that has happened before.
It's not CONSISTENT, NOT LOGICAL, ETC, that Omicron would kill thousands a day, but hardly kill anyone in UK, South Africa
It's not CONSISTENT/LOGICAL that Omicron would kill thousands a day, but not kill, not hospitalize, and only give Cold/Flu symptoms to about 7 to 10 on this board that got Omicron, and would have hospitalized, killed Ms Cranefield, age 69 to 79, and done the same to the 60 something year old Whybarks, and would have done the same to the about 8 to 15 at the church I goto.
Out of the hundreds, thousands of people I know, NONE have been hospitalized, Killed by Omicron. That's ILLOGICALLY INCONSISTENT with Omicron, supposedly killing thousands a day.
And if Omicron was hospitalizing and killing thousands a day, the HOSPITALS would be OVERFLOWING. But Sacred Heart, and Davenport Hospital WA, have been either almost empty(Davenport Hospital), an or semi lots of open rooms, open ICU(about 3 to 6 to 9 open rooms/ICU's, an or wouldnt have so few Omicron/Covid patients, and they would be sending all the OVERFLOW of Omicron/Covid patients to the almost empty Davenport Hospital, and Davenport Hospital wouldn't be almost empty, most of the time.
That's ILLOGICALLY INCONSISTENT with Omicron supposedly killing thousands a day.
And if all that is just Coincidence, if it's just Coincidence that Omicron is not hospitalizing, killing lots of those on this board, an in the church I goto, and out of hundreds, that I know, and that area hospitals are not being overflowed by Omicron, despite Omicron supposedly killings thousands a day, etc, then coincidence can only go so far, before it's not coincidence, and that Omicron is LOGICALLY Probably not supposedly killing thousands a day.
Omicron is not killing 2000 a day. Either they are miscounting, or misrepresenting, or lies, or mistakes, or the old variants of Covid are making a comeback in other parts of the USA, or its a even newer strain then Omicron, in other parts in the USA.
At extreme most, it's only a problem in other parts of USA, an or in Seattle, because it's not a problem in Tri Cities, Spokane, Central, Eastern WA.
And it's not a problem in UK, South Africa, Australia.
Also show your source that says 2000 a day are dying now.
But even if you show a source that says that, I doubt it, for all the reasons I explained above.
1. People who are dying are far more likely to be unvaccinated.
2. Bari Weiss is a “woke liberal”? The same Bari Weiss who had a tantrum and quit the Times because the “woke liberals” there were meanies to her in the news room because of her conservative politics?
The cdc admitted? Really? Like this is a big secret they were keeping?
Your second statement is false: lots of people can and do live with multiple co-morbidities for many years.
Feel free to not watch the clip, obviously. She refers to herself as a "progressive liberal", and yes, she complained about being ganged up on by the liberal mob for daring to not go along with the hive mind 100%.1. People who are dying are far more likely to be unvaccinated.

Thank you for highlighting the importance of getting vaccinated.Umm doesn't mean their immune system isn't compromised from said comorbidities meaning they'd die from the flu or a cold.
1. No I did not bother to watch that whackadoodle - I’m already well acquainted with her. She can call herself what she wants: it doesn’t make it so. She also recently called herself a “left-leaning centrist”. Ask non-conservative Jews what she is and progressive is not a word they would use to describe her.Feel free to not watch the clip, obviously.

2. For arguments sake however, even if she actually was a progressive liberal that is not the same thing as a “woke liberal”. This John Ziegler is a moron for conflating the two. Nor is Bill Maher a “woke liberal”. Maher is most assuredly a liberal but he hates the woke crowd with a vengeance.
So what is she then? By her own words? A self professed “left-leaning centrist” or a “progressive”? Those things are not close to each other.She can't define herself, but one small group out of the whole can. Got it.
Thank you for highlighting the importance of getting vaccinated.
They literally did not say that. Try reading past the headline.1. People who are dying are far more likely to have co-morbidities.
The CDC admitted that 75% of their death toll is 4+ co-morbidities. It's sad to say but those people weren't long for this world with or without covid.
holy shit. it is amazing how wrong you are all the time.Except the vaccine kills your immune system. Hence the reason why vaccinated still get covid, have symptoms, and spread it. It's also why you need a booster.
Btw Fauci is calling for another booster, better go listen to your master.
holy shit. it is amazing how wrong you are all the time.
They literally did not say that. Try reading past the headline.
Allow me to help: 75% of all deaths among vaccinated people had 4 or more co-morbidities.
Its too bad Covid has simply become a political football, because it would be a great opportunity to explore how unhealthy the world has become in terms of diet and exercise. It would be interesting to me to see a "healthier" nation and what their mortality rate vs comorbidities is.First, I am sick and tired of all of the overhyping of COVID.
That said, I know a lot of people who have died in the past two years from COVID that hadn't died from their co-morbidities before that. It's lazy to blame everything on COVID but it's just as lazy....and more dangerous.......to. pretend that COVID isn't killing anyone and that nobody would be dead if not for the co-morbidities.
I've lost track of how many people that I know that either died of COVID or lost a family member to COVID in the past years but it's into the double digits now. I know that I'm getting old, but I didn't have that many funerals to attend prior to January 2020.

Unsurprisingly, we've been pointed toward big pharma to solve all of our problems instead of looking at the pandemic holistically.
A serious question… can you name a pandemic or disease that has been halted by something other than pharma? All the stuff we are vaccinated for before we are five, has there been alternatives to stop or stymie the disease ?Its too bad Covid has simply become a political football, because it would be a great opportunity to explore how unhealthy the world has become in terms of diet and exercise.

That's not a serious question, that's a bait question, something you are extraordinarily skilled at, and has nothing to do with the point I made in my post.A serious question… can you name a pandemic or disease that has been halted by something other than pharma?

Oh it is a very serious question. What am I going to bait you with?That's not a serious question, that's a bait question, something you are extraordinarily skilled at, and has nothing to do with the point I made in my post.
When you reply by telling me the point of the post I made, I will answer your question.Oh it is a very serious question. What am I going to bait you with?
I personally don’t know of any major disease or pandemic that was solved through holistic methods . Wish they were and I am not arrogant to think I personally have knowledge of every disease that was cured by said method .
I had it in November 2020, and probably again about a month ago. Didn't get tested the second time because I didn't want to get quarantined out of town for two weeks. First time was nothing. Second time I was sicker, moderate cold symptoms may have had a secondary infection.Ate with a buddy this week who came down with covid the following day. Now I’m feeling it. Headache, body ache, bothered throat and about 2.5 degrees hotter than normal. Still eating and drink at the moment. This is with Moderna 2x back in April. Just curious to those here that have had it what it was like for you, assuming it’s omicron. Gonna sleuth around Twitter today to see if any recruiting news is available.
My uncle has a great story about his colonoscopy. Similar circumstances, only he had a bit of a reaction to the white stuff.Kidney stones meh...finally decided to do something about the grapes of wrath (hemorrhoids) last month. Nothing worse then having Dr. Jellyfinger performing minimally invasive (pun) procedure while the cute 23 y/o female intern is looking over his shoulder staring at my prison wallet. Thanks god for masks, she will never recognize me if our paths cross again.
Thanks for the “hint”.When you reply by telling me the point of the post I made, I will answer your question.
Here's a hint: it doesn't have to deal with treating a pandemic with drugs.
First, I am sick and tired of all of the overhyping of COVID.
That said, I know a lot of people who have died in the past two years from COVID that hadn't died from their co-morbidities before that. It's lazy to blame everything on COVID but it's just as lazy....and more dangerous.......to pretend that COVID isn't killing anyone and that nobody would be dead if not for the co-morbidities.

I'm willing to bet that most to almost all the Covid Death's of friends, co worker's, family, people you know, etc, probably died in late/end of 2019 to beginning of 2021 at the very latest.
There was 600k dead 2019/2020, because didn't have good treatment, diagnosis, deadlier original variant of Covid, no vaccines, people not social distancing, riots, people still shoulder to shoulder, etc.
Still low .50% to .75% of 1% mortality rate out of about 115 mil to 125 mil to 135 mil to 150 mil cases.
2020/2021 Delta Variant was less deadly, more contagious. About 100k to 200k to 300k at very most died. About a .23% to .33% to .43% of 1% mortality rate out of about 150 mil to 175 mil to 200 mil more cases.
2021/2022 was is a combo of Delta, and Omicron. About 75k to 115k to 150k to 175k dead, .14% to .23% to .30% of 1% mortality rate, millions of cases.
Last 3 to 6 months to Present: Omicron, Delta. About 9k to 17k to 33k to 67k dead. About a .07% to .10% to .13% to .15% to .17% out of 1% mortality rate. When Flu used to be around it killed more. Millions of cases. Projected about 200 mil to 300 mil to 400 mil cases, and that everybody in world will get it. Least deadly, most contagious.
See the pattern? With each new year, measuring period, etc, Covid keeps on getting less deadly, more contagious.
After Omicron the next variant will probably be even less deadly, more contagious, to where mortality rate will be .03% to .06% to .09% of 1%. Then next variant year, .01% to .02% to .03% 0f 1% mortality rate.
The deaths of the people you know, probably happened semi longer ago in the Covid past, and probably not close to recent.
Also that is where you live. Just because it was that way where you live or that way with people you knew, doesn't mean it's that way with everybody else.
Out of the HUNDREDS I KNOW, NONE HAVE BEEN HOSPITALIZED DIED OF COVID. And I know LOTS who were Elderly, had Comorbidities, unvaccinated, etc, who DIDNT GET HOSPITALIZED, DIE OF COVID.
And only about 5 to 10 to 20 to 40 out of the whole County, I live in has died of Covid.
The Covid reality is probably somewhere in the middle between you and me. My situation is probably a OUTLIER. And your situation of all those people you know dying, is a OUTLIER.
In any case, that is in the PAST. Now Omicron/Covid is NOTHING, and probably remain nothing in future.
And the leadership, Inslee, Biden, others, don't want to give up power, control, money, etc, and so will continue to HYPE, FEAR MONGER the hell out of Covid and Milk Covid for all it's worth.
I would say that things should get back to pre Covid normal in the next 1,2,3 years, but because of Inslee, Biden, it will probably take 4 to 7 to 10 to 13 years to get back to pre Covid normal, unless courts, intervention.
Mik what is it you are after ? Do you want things to get back to normal? How does that happen ?I'm willing to bet that most to almost all the Covid Death's of friends, co worker's, family, people you know, etc, probably died in late/end of 2019 to beginning of 2021 at the very latest.
