Covid is real and like everything you are fed, there is modicum of truth. Have respect for yourself and always learn to read between the lines. The wheels of justice turn slowly, but grind exceedingly fine. |

Many don't believe in ghosts, and for those that do, we'll roll the odds at 99% survival, age group dependent. How would you feel if they died tomorrow just because, but you didn't visit them because you were afraid of a ghost? |

I wonder if it is being used as an excuse to exclude them for other reasons, like maybe it’s more loose, free and easy conversation and fun without having the old folks around at a family gathering? Example Thread: Holidays and how illogical sheeple are. You won't believe it! |

Before he officially got sick? Quoting: MoonSlice Thinking of cancelling seeing my family this year. Cancel. The only fact that seems certain about this thing is that it’s rough on seniors. Maybe it’s all bunk, or maybe you end up feeling horrible the rest of your life when you walk the thing in your family’s front door with tragic results. It’s not an overreaction or some sort of surrender to agenda to exercise caution concerning the elderly and colds/flus. |

If someone hacked all over this person and they’re sick with something, then you don’t run over and get in grandmom’s face. Doesn’t even have anything to do with Covid. It’s just smart hygiene and looking out for family with susceptibility to viruses. Flus and pneumonia take out tons of seniors every year. Maybe go see them but stay outside, Basically just act like you might be a carrying a bad cold. |

Maybe go see them but stay outside, Basically just act like you might be a carrying a bad cold. This exactly. Everyone has this frakkin' knee-jerk reaction regarding COVID... "Oh, you're all Sheeple, oh, you fell for the scam, blahblah." It's not about COVID, it's about illness in general, and common sense. If you had asked me the same question two years ago, my answer would have been EXACTLY the same, minus any reference to COVID. If you think that you might be carrying germs or sickness, YOU DON'T EXPOSE OTHER PEOPLE IF YOU CAN HELP IT. That's just common sense and common courtesy. My Mom has a compromised immune system. If I thought I had a bad COLD, I wouldn't expose her. Same goes for anything else. For me? Minor inconvenience, as COVID likely would be. For her? Hospital at least. So if the Cowboy there didn't have his head firmly inserted in his rectum, he'd be able to actually apply some reading comprehension to the majority of the posts, which are saying the same thing. But then, I'm sure they're also the type of person to go to work at a fast food joint with a crappy flu, knowing that they're contagious but not wanting to miss out on the free Whopper for lunch. ad ignorantiam - The assumption of a conclusion or fact based primarily on lack of evidence to the contrary.
