We still don't know the full effects on the brain and other organs down the road many years from now for a small portion of the population. So, I hope not to get it and still practice prevention for the most part.

The most dangerous side affect has been TDS complications. There have been serious TDS problems before Covid, but Covid fear mongers', have seen their coping skills diminish immensely. It will take a long time for that to correct itself.

Anyone who isn't concerned about getting it has not done research on it. You can get it and still die from it even if you are fully vaccinated. They are always coming up with new variants and they don't tell us half of what they find.

If Fauce would be honest, he could help us a lot. He is familiar with the virus, because he and the Wuhan labs created it. Fauce is currently very despondent, because his illegal bio-labs in the Ukraine were discovered and destroyed. I just hope they found all of them.

It’s an endemic now. Let’s all move on!

Debra Riffle

Therapeutics are available to treat Covid. Vaccines are available. Deaths and hospitalizations are way down. Those are the two numbers to focus on.

Benjamin Montgomery

What me worry?

Benjamin Montgomery

I am vaccinated and boosted. Then I got Covid. So there. I think it was bad for the vulnerable, not so bad for folks in good health.

Zaos Gonzolez

No, I never worried about it. All the government does is lie. Look at the current state of the country. If the government says it, do the opposite, everytime. Unless it’s buying the same stocks as Nancy Pelosi.

Adam

Unless Trump says it of course, right? Then it's gospel. Sigh

Adam

Oops...my bad. Zane was referring TO Trump. My fault.

It’s the flu

Sports betting app companies now control all professional sports outcomes.

Trump is still your President

The referees are determining the winners. The NFL has become a giant money laundering system. There is nothing there for me anymore, but I have a lot more time with my lovely wife, and our friends.

Roger Goodell gets paid $64 million dollars a year to ruin the game.

The Chief's biggest mistake was signing Taylor Swift. That's when it all went South, and now the team is moving West.

Not since the Great Depression has wealth inequality in the US been so acute, Top 0.1% now worth as much as the bottom 90%. Prior to Reagan and trickle-down economics in the mid-80's, the bottom 90% held over 35% and the top 0.1% about 10%. And yet, the wealthiest among us still want more!

Max

It will always be that way, because most people make bad choices.

Fred

Forgot one important fact ... Reagan and trickle-down economics also put us on the path to huge budget deficits and financial ruin.

Fred

This data is from 12 years ago, but it is only WORSE now. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2014/nov/13/us-wealth-inequality-top-01-worth-as-much-as-the-bottom-90

Nothing the Democrats have done of offered has ever helped the majority of the people. Obamacare caused my healthcare to skyrocket and quality to plummet. Democratic scandals, such as those seen in Minnesota with the Somalians, far too common. It's past time to support out President.

Fred

Prior to the Affordable Care Act, insurance companies routinely denied coverage for pre-existing conditions. How exactly does that reduce the quality of coverage?

Fred

Right ... other than the 19th Amendment, Social Security, GI Bill, Medicare, Medicaid, Securities and Exchange Act, Rural Electrification Act, unemployment benefits, Voting Rights Act, Head Start & student loans, Republicans? Tax cuts for corporations & the wealthy.

JIC CoMo

I say fire every Politian. I have not seen one yet that knows what they are doing. They are only for themself and not for the people of the State.

Toasty

If the revenue isn't replaced (along with cuts) with a flat/consumption/fair tax, then it's a waste of time. When it comes to spending money, republicans can waste it as much as the democrats.

Fred

It would probably be replaced by higher regressive sales tax rates.
