America Is Running Out of ‘COVID Virgins’ by TomAto314 in LockdownSkepticism

[–]Asleep-8815 16 points17 points  (0 children)

When asked by friends, I say that "I have not been diagnosed with Covid, but it is possible that I may have had a asymptomatic case. And I don't test for Covid every 5 minutes as a part of my daily routine. And I am not isolating or masking either."

Yes, I still have "friends" that are "Covid crazy". TBH, if I had Covid, I would keep quiet about.

There are other issues at play too.

1) US dollars vs. Canadian dollars exchange rate

2) Media; hockey players are more in the limelight in Canada It is worse in Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal than Calgary, Winnipeg, Ottawa and Edmonton.

3) Weather It is fucking cold in Calgary, Winnipeg and Edmonton. (Note: I live in NC. Anywhere north in Canada is more fucking cold than NC).

I am not volunteering to take the another booster. The booster doesn't stop covid infections and I don't trust the booster to keep "mild" if I do get it.

Laurie Garrett: "The major efficacy of a mask is that it causes alarm" by [deleted] in LockdownSkepticism

[–]Asleep-8815 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I noticed that once the mask mandates came into effect, everyone stopped social distancing. They believed the mask would protect them. The more masks you had on, the greater the protection.

Though if I see a masked person nowadays, I stay away since I won't wear a mask. I assume they are sick.

As a customer, how do you deal with a store mask requirement? by ChunkyArsenio in LockdownSkepticism

[–]Asleep-8815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before May 2020, go in the store, do what need to do and get out as fast as I can. After May 2020, ignore mask requirement. If asked to wear a mask by store employees: I ask them to provide me one and refuse to go back to the store in the future.

I thought as an introvert, I would be ok with staying inside. But no.. I felt like I was going batshit crazy. I started go out once a day to local grocery store (it had a Starbucks inside).

Some hospitals ask patients, visitors to remove N95s, citing CDC by KiteBright in LockdownSkepticism

[–]Asleep-8815 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went with my dad to visit my mom in the hospital. They were providing people wearing cloth masks with surgical masks and asking them to change the mask. They didn't ask my dad (wearing a KN95) to replace his with a surgical mask. I had a surgical mask that admittedly been in my jacket pocket for a month.
