A lot of my issues with COVID and how it's covered stem from the lack of consistency & the moving of goalposts.

First it was do we wear masks or not & the experts, THE EXPERTS (not Trump) were split on it Dr. Fauci included.

Then it's ventilators, gotta have 'em! So Trump made it happen and now we've got an excess of them.

Then it's lockdowns & flatten the curve....we're still in this stage and first it was about hospitalizations & space available in ICUs and keeping frontline medical workers (EMTs, Doctors, Nurses, et al) healthy & available for action. Now it's about infection rates.

The next thing was testing. We test A BUNCH! And due to that obviously we're going to see more cases, it's the law of large numbers. But what we haven't seen and this is very important is a mortality rate that has kept up with the amount of people who have caught COVID.

I look forward to there being no real flu season this year...this COVID bullshit is going to hang like a cloud over all of humanity for a bit and it's like at absolute worst 98% survival rate?



The lockdowns seem arbitrary and punitive....In my state restaurants can be open but bars can't? So alcohol doesn't keep COVID away but appetizers do? You can go to the grocery store, you can go to the hardware store, but you can't go to Church and kids going to school is quite arbitrary. My daughter is in daycare everyday, my nieces 1 goes to physical school 4 times a week and the other 4 times a month...it's nuts. Granted we're not in a heavy lockdown, but when THAT happened and you felt trapped in your own home, couldn't go to state parks or anything...ridiculous! My family still gets out in nature, we do all the distancing and mask wearing, but it's fucking arbitrary and to deny that or not address it at all is mental.
