Coronavirus: COVID-19

I guess it's a natural assumption when your scope is what it is.

Anyway, seems to me it's important to keep in mind that it's an airborne virus first and foremost. I'll link to this story once more: Italian study shows ventilation can cut school COVID cases by 82%.

Just opening the window can make a huge difference.

I get that you're a special boy pseudo-intellectual Quebec nationalist weirdo but at the end of the day you're still dunking on the libs with what you see as common sense like any conservative with a camo hat.

Nicely spotted re common sense in this instance, I'll give you that. This is one of the first times in my life that I use this thing, so I'm pretty proud of it.

Also, opening windows in classes has the advantage of not yet being politicized, thus mentioning AOC was an own goal on my part.

UK Covid infections climb by a million in a week.

Yeah and the stupid government chose this exact time to stop COVID mass testing programmes. I've heard reports that the risk of getting very ill from it is extremely low now, but you'd think tracking this spike in cases properly would be a good idea -_-

And America finally hit 1 million deaths! USA! USA! USA!

how is it that i know a few people who never took the covid vaxs and they seem fine and healthy today ..???

It's called the law of averages. There's nothing to say EVERYONE who refuses the vaccine will get sick or indeed NOBODY who refuses the vaccine will get sick, just as those of those who take it, some will still get sick. But not taking it is sort of like spinning the chamber, pointing the gun at your head and pulling the trigger. I guess in the same analogy, a vaccinated person would only have one bullet in the chamber, so much better chance of survival. Maybe. Nothing is black and white. Except television sets in the 1950s.

Trolls already gave a good answer to this but I think the real question is why you believe that is
