    Kids get seriously ill from covid at rates less than the flu.

    People who need transplants had to worry about illness just as much BEFORE covid.

    Jesus the hysteria and virtue signaling of some of the :LIB:s on here is pathetic.

    Any excuse to shame others and feel superior, right???

      People who need transplants had to worry more during a pandemic than not during a pandemic. Just wear a fucking mask, it's not hard. What do you stand to gain by not wearing one?

        When did i say I won’t wear a mask when indoors?

        People waiting in transplants and who have recently gotten them have always had to be extremely careful about things that could harm them with their compromised immune system. Did you wear a mask everywhere for them before covid? :funny-clown-hammer:

              So fucking what? That doesn't mean it can't help. Covid isn't the only disease that can be spread through the air. Aside from that, why is it so important to you to not wear a mask? What do you gain?

                At a gym? Being able to breathe while working out. At a bar? Being able to drink and talk and hear the other people (can’t hear great and rely on reading lips sometimes)

                  Work out at home if you need to. I don't know what the fuck bars are open around you but require you to wear a mask while drinking. What non petty and real reasons do you have and once again how does this outweigh even one person getting sick?

                    Wait so you’re ok with people going out to bars without masks on but not gyms???

                        just so I am clear:

                        no masks at bars and restaurants: Fine.

                        no masks at gym: terrible.

                        is that right?

                              No I haven't. At this point it's just become an option here and that's like, a few tables very far apart.

                                  Take out was still a thing. There isn't much room for dining space in most buildings in my general area so most places had about half their business be from takeout before the pandemic anyway. I also worked in a restaurant beforehand so I want too big on going and sitting down for a meal in one on that regular of a basis since it reminded me of work.

                            so why go after felix instead of like, I don't know, the CDC or business associations or senators or politicians who decided to allow indoor dining and drinking?

                              Where I live they didn't allow it and are just starting to lift restrictions slowly. I can't really do much about places I don't live.

              Why not? It's hardly a inconvenience and I can cover my face while shoplifting. Tossing a mask on when I go to an indoor public space on the off chance it may prevent someone from getting sick is totally worth it to me. Just cause someone may be more compassionate than you're capable of doesn't mean they're lying.

      Delta is more contagious than cold, flu or whatever, so probably not just as much.

        yeah but since the cold or flu was enough to kill them before covid, they took effective precautions. i don't know how much more they can do than that?

          Wearing several masks instead of one or wearing a uncomfortable properly fit N95. Not attending indoor gatherings. Not leaving their house at all.

            pretty sure that was standard for transplant patients and other extremely immunocompromised people before covid, no?

                Yes all of it. Transplant patients had to be super careful even before covid

                  Yeah, but I assume some of them used to leave their house, with a mask or what not, at least occasionally. Now with delta this kind of behavior has a higher chance to fuck them up, hence making them stay home more, which is why I think it is fair to say that they have to worry now more than before.

      You should take the advice from your username and literally never go outside.

      You will not be missed.

        I never have and never will. Thank you for the encouragement but it was not necessary.

        You will also not be missed!
