There is a lot we could to prevent constant reinfections, but no public motivation to do so

Um capitalism? Wonder how long before Liberals realize hey are as expendable to the ruling elite as the working class. But even if they did realize I think change scares them even more than the status quo.

    we have serious institutional resistance to caring about public health.

    You can thank Brandon for gutting the CDC and putting the High Priests of Nurgle in every position that he could. It’s not just COVID anymore, the CDC as an organization now basically exists to facilitate the spread of communicable diseases.

    They said kids should go to school with COVID, diarrhea, or lice! Thats fucking insane!!!

      They are blaming child behavior problems on remote learning for half a year four years ago, and not the neuroinvasive virus they are repeatedly exposing kids to

        I encourage all comrades to never forget the sheer concentrated child abuse that was the push to reopen schools during the pandemic.

        For the first 6 months, entire classrooms were being ravaged with 100% infection rates. Kids were getting repeat infections 3, 4, 5+ times a month. And white liberal Karen’s in the office were just treating it as another “teehee kids, what can you do” moment.

        An entire generation completely fucked by long covid. Who even knows what the fuck that many COVID infections do on developing minds and bodies.

        I’m sure we’ll find out when they all start dropping like flies…

          "Why are we 50% below recruitment goals for our war with China?"

          "Half the kids that apply have major respiratory issues from long-COVID" 👀
