    I was not going to do this but decided to a few minutes ago. I was recently informed I have tested positive for Covid. I took the single dose jab back in May. So far I feel fine. Now at the risk of sounding insensitive, people have been kicking the bucket for thousands of years, and everybody reading this comment will join me later on doing the same! Up to 2019, there were almost 80,000 a year that died from complications of the flu. With Covid, there has been so much hyperbole when it comes to its morbidity figures I find it hard to trust the data. To date, I know of three deaths that seem to be Covid related. One was about a month ago in Georgia and the man also had COPD along with being 93. The other two happened last year both were in their 70s. Both had cardiac conditions. Now, I want to make my position CLEAR! I am NOT a Physician or an infectious disease expert. I know people have died. I simply don't trust the numbers right now. As currently defined I am now a "case"! I feel 100% fine and am 100% asymptomatic! As to these "cases", I can no longer find the data, but I understand these Covid tests at least at one time had a history of being highly unreliable! I tested positive! I will isolate myself for a while and take care of myself.

    My wife and I asked 3 different doctors that we use about getting the Covid vaccine. They all stuttered around a bit so I said let me rephrase this, have you or your family gotten the vaccine. All 3 admitted neither they or their family had gotten it and didn’t plan to. That was all I needed to hear.

    I had a chance to speak to one of my Non-VA Physicians several months ago! This is important to make clear because all aspects of the US Federal Government are borderline totalitarian when it comes to anything dealing with Covid! I asked about the "jab" and the masks. This Medical Provider told me that BOTH the "jab" and the "mask" ONLY protect the person getting the "jab" and wearing the mask. Furthur this person said almost all SARS CoV bugs can survive outside a human host for as long as 3 hours. This means I can get the "jab" then several weeks later go walking outside and place my hand on say a handrail that was recently used by someone with Covid and NOW I HAVE IT ON MY BODY! I am wearing a mask and have taken the "jab" BUT I can now transmit this bug to another person. I have spoken to more medical people Physicians, Nurses etc that tell me they either refuse the "jab" or took it under protest to keep their jobs THAN I have heard the reverse. In this, I can verify what @OldeSkool just posted.

    There is right now a lot of noise, hyperbole and out and out lies being told ON BOTH SIDES! Has anybody been watching the news in regard to the new revelations about DR Fauci's involvement with that lab in China?

    In all honesty, I am starting to feel like the two Doctors in this Covid joke I recently heard. Doctor A asked Doctor B how much longer will this Covid emergency last? Doctor B said I don't know I need to ask a politician!

    I'm kind of hoping they make the format suppositories, and then go ahead and try and make multiple insertions a day mandatory.

    Maybe if Uncle Sam tells all Americans it is now mandatory to shove something up their arse several times a day, I'm thinking that perhaps that will be just enough to finally get some long overdue pushback.

    I doubt it. People are so scared they would pimp out their own children if told too. Society is weaker than ever. Just plain stupid and mostly useless.
