      Right back at you. Please show me where I am not “chill” here? There is one person who is not chill and its certainly not me.

      You can still choose to wear a mask or not, theres no law yet or is there? So just don’t, I guess?

      The smaller bumps by the way occur because people kept getting vaccines and boosters. How does that look like where you are? When was the last time you got a shot or a booster? From the sound of it a while ago.

          if there genuinely IS a reason to wear masks again

          this proves you don’t understand what you’re talking about at all. there was never a compelling reason to stop masking according to the data. period.

              that’s nice. it’s also tantamount to covid denial, so you can just take it and shove it right back up your ass where it came from.

                  you’re right, i’m sorry. it’s just downplaying a deadly and ongoing virus and dismissing the most effective method of protection against it as not necessary.

                  don’t talk to me, you’re disgusting.

                    Come down from your pedestal for a moment. The world isn’t binary. The most effective method of protection against it would be total self-isolation, but I’m guessing you’re not advocating for that, so I’m going to assume that means you agree that there’s a limit to how far we should go to reduce the spread of the virus. We clearly disagree on where that point is.

                    I understand it’s uncomfortable having your viewpoints challenged, but you are acting like a petulant child. If you’re going to argue with me, the least you could do is talk about the issue and try to convince me of your viewpoint. I’m very open to changing my views, but the only learning experience I’m currently enjoying is that a good number of the users here are extremely bigoted.

                    If you genuinely don’t want me to talk to you, you can just block me, or stop replying.

      it’s just that it is still such a small number of cases that it doesn’t matter.

      To the best of my knowledge there is no meaningful surveillance in the USA or EU. Some places are still doing wastewater testing but it’s difficult to make solid determinations from wastewater.
