On "Nextdoor", people near me are up in arms due to the long lines to get tested.. most people getting tested do not have any symptoms, but need tests to go back to work because they were in "close contact" or some b.s. with someone that tested positive. (Whether showing symptoms or not) It's a never-ending cycle of stupidity and testing.

Miles of lines of people who feel perfectly healthy enough to stand in long lines, often in the cold, to get a test to tell them if they're sick or not. Not sure any period in human history can match this period of mass stupidity.

Agree. Sad but True ! The Brainwashing is Supreme. People are terrified. They 'did everything right' ! Double vaxxed with a booster and they still get sick. The look of FEAR in their eyes is real & sad. Yet... they still can't put the pieces together so that they see what truly is ! And they're looking for someone to blame ! It's the UNVACCINATED !!!!

Here in Cali they test cause they had vague contact with a pos case and all dutifully line up for house to catch it from the person next in line 🤦‍♀️. You sometimes can’t help stupid.

4 months ago I went to my small hearing aid office to pick up a hearing aid that had been repaired. The only people there were the audiologist and one elderly masked up couple before me, who shuffled past my unmasked self as fast as they could. I was with the audiologist less then 5 minutes. A week and a half later, I got a call from their remote receptionist telling me I might have been there when someone else might have been exposed to covid. My response: So what? Don't waste my time with this. And I better not be in some government database! The woman on the phone clearly did not expect that reaction. She couldn't hang up quickly enough.

So being triple vaxxed and asymptomatic isn't enough. You need to still prove that you're not really infected .

And with a test that cannot really prove it.

YES. AND I HAVE TO HAVE A MANDATED PCT EVERY WEEK TO WORK (i am vaccine free) and most have NO SYMPTOMS. But now they are smartening up, to get the PCR test now you HAVE TO HAVE SYMPTOMS. Girl next to me in line said yes she did. Wasn't sneezing, running nose, nothing. They are PILING IN THE TESTING PLACE and if they are sick I DO NOT WANT TO BE AROUND THEM. IT IS PUTTING ME IN JEOPARDY. IT is in a building with CLOSED WINDOWS.

It is beyond all common sense. I have two friends both jabbed and boosted. One has been testing every day and twice a week at CVS for Rapid and PCR. Other one wants to get tested because someone he sat next to on Friday tested positive. NO SYMPTOMS, Feels fine, BUT MUST GET TESTED. I asked him why he wanted to get tested (and he was really upset it took three days to get an appointment) and he said it is because he has workers coming to do something at his house and doesn't want to infect them. I told him GO SIT OUTSIDE OR OPEN A WINDOW. I really think people's BRAINS are BROKEN.

Meanwhile, I’m unvaxxed and just caught a flu. Am I gonna get tested for covid? Hell no! Who cares what it is; I’m not dying over here so I don’t give a flip if it’s covid or not.

Every year around this time I get a runny nose and sometimes a light cough. Usually it's because of the dry air where I live in the winter. According to the new "logic" I am now supposed to ignore something I've experienced my entire life at the same time every year and rush out and get tested for a scary scary *scary* virus with a 97 - 99% survival rate (Over 99% for healthy people and pretty much 100% for kids) to prove to myself and others that I already know that I don't have something. Sorry if that sounds confusing, but I'm confused. lol. JUST SAY *NO* TO TESTING and every other part of this madness.

Expand full comment

I could swear that's exactly what happened to me last Wednesday. Left PR for VA. Not 5 minutes into my son's house in VA and my nose was running. Nighttime heat is forced hot air, via natural gas. I've had the runny nose on and off all week, but no other symptoms at all. (Could also be allergies to something in the house; I don't remember every blowing my nose when we've been out and about doing things this week).

Friday I head to my daughter's house in southern ME for a week there. Of course there will be dry air heat there as well (FHA, too).

Regardless, whatever the symptoms (or not), I'm not giving the testing bureaucracy any of my data. I'll only self-test at CVS for my return to PR, and I'll only pretend to stick the probe up into my nose. Eff them all.

I mean not that you have the flu, but your attitude! Who cares? What can they do for you in hospital even so? Test you for The covid you will GET in the hospital, move you to a ventilator and destroy you in three days with Remdesivir (Deathisnear). If it is the flu, take Tamiflu. If it is Covid, take the Drugs that should not be named...it is JUST like Tamiflu for Covid. Bless you and prayers for a rapid and full recovery. ( I think tamiflu is an anti viral...anyone know if it might work on Covid? I have a strong suspicion it does...)

The parents at my kids school figured it out finally. You never have Covid if you never get tested. There is literally ZERO reason to get tested at a health facility but even the home testing is dumb. Suddenly no kids at our school ever have Covid and I am certain its because parents stopped getting kids tested, as a positive test means your kid has to miss school for 10 days (or I guess 5 now). No test, stay in school. Simple.

It is beyond the pale. Even if you test positive for Covid, what are you going to do, you are already vaxxed and boosted you ninnies. I offered them HCQ or Ivermectin, but they are convinced it will kill them because Fauci said so. My god they won't even take a vitamin D pill. So I am done offering, and I have NO sympathy. I had to go stand in a line today out the door to get a mandated PCR AGAIN because I go back to work on Monday...which reminds me I need to write to HR about the increasing risk to me of getting this test.

Hilarious! Your rant is the mirror image of any recent rant against the unvaccinated. We might as well start calling this for what it is, a Pandemic of the Infected. And there's nothing they can do about it. Omicron, whenever it finally takes over, has really shown how naked our "Emperors" are.

Just read a FB thread for my kid’s college where all the parents are worried about getting tests and results on time for kids to go back to school. Ditto for the stupid boosters. A few were looking for boosters for their kids who literally just had Covid this week. Their doctors said it was ok to just get boosted once they felt better rather than wait the recommended 4 weeks. Whut? How is that sound medical advice? Would they recommend a chickenpox vax a week after they had the chickenpox?

Expand full comment

Dad asked the pharmacist if it was okay to get a booster and the flu shot within a few weeks. First he was told to wait 4 weeks in between. Then he was told 2 weeks was fine. Then he was told it could be done in one session, just use the other arm. Science.

I think that comes from the utterly stupid idea that the only vaccine reactions are very localized. It's criminally ignorant, at best.

Expand full comment

That’s why infants are given 6, 7, 8, 10, 12 different agents all at once and then get day-glow acetaminophen ladled down their gullets at the same time. It’s to “stop disease.” Of course not mitochondrial diseases or autoimmune diseases or ASDs. Just things that are transient like chicken pox and mumps….”Science” must be a much much reliable magical thinking system than the flying spaghetti monster’s right? (Just because guys like Gregor Mendel and Georges Lemaître were Catholic priests, those are just wild coincidences right?)

Expand full comment

Exactly. The ones who don’t die of “sudden infant death syndrome” which is vaccine death, will likely have an Autism Spectrum Disorder, or develop an autoimmune disease etc, etc, but the takeaway is that they’ll likely never marry or reproduce, and mom and dad will certainly take steps to ensure that no more siblings arrive after the impaired child’s arrival. No need to push women into the abortionist’s stirrups when numerous vaccines will guarantee mom’s future sterility through a series of “unfortunate coincidences.”

the cases should have never happened at all (you know, due to our government funded health protective agencies)...but as we see, those no longer exist and have not existed for a long time. i feel for parents who don't where to turn. It's a nightmare for those who want health for their families.

The solution is not for the women to have to take a stand, but for them to enlist as many sympathetic male swimmers, who will claim to be trans women, as they can.

When actual biological women never win another swim meet, the absurdity of letting biological men compete in women's sports will be apparent to even the wokest nut jobs out there.

Expand full comment

No--I think those women need to stand up for themselves as feminists have always claimed they can. They built this trap for themselves. They wanted to be "good allies" and prove they weren't "transphobes." Feminists betrayed other women from the get-go, with contempt for women who wanted to be wives and mothers. Their version of "choice" has always been "be like us." They got themselves co-opted with a vengeance.

Expand full comment

Exactly, SCA. The women should stand and say he is biologically a man, no matter what he thinks in his head. Saying this does not make you transphobic in my opinion. I am not transphob, be who you want to be but don't piss on my leg and tell me its raining when I know what is under your swim trunks or in your abdomen and you want to compete against biological women.

Expand full comment

The concept of "transphobia" is nonsense. No one is "trans," or "queer." You're male or female, and that's true regardless of whom you're sexually attracted to.

I remember decades ago feeling the aching poignancy of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." It's hard not to be loved by ones you love, and even a man in a really hot dress has real emotions. That doesn't mean we must realign the natural axis of the universe for those who cannot fit on a spectrum of normality. "Normal" is not a bad word. It's a base from which some diverge slightly and some diverge greatly. But it's a necessary measure because some divergences are extremely unhealthy. Gay and straight are normal categories. We need the guts to say many other categories aren't.

There is no more "government" pay for when you have to take time off due to positive test. My husband's company doesn't pay either - you have to use your own PTO.

I can’t help it but this made me giggle out loud. Witnessed this same thing last week in Austin Texas.
