Back in the delta days or lately with omicron everywhere?

Omicron, 3 weeks ago. But I have no idea "which one" I got. 

 

I lost my sense of taste, and so did a bunch of other guys at work. And the bosses fold a few of us "no, omicron doesnt do that", like we were lying. 

 

.... and we all tested positive... didnt need to make up symptoms

Thousands of LA-area law enforcement personnel out sick, quarantined ahead of Super Bowl

Good thing they are out now, and not in 2 weeks.  But if it continues, it would be interesting what the response will be.

I just got back this week. Before I went out I heard people at work were getting it, but didnt pay much attention (Im vaxxed, so havent worried about covid in like a year)

While I was out, the dickbag boss at work sort of implied "are you faking it" (even after I tested positive)

Now that Im back, and I find out like 15 guys on the days I work all went out the same week.

Fire guys are all out, too

So I assume everyone will get this one, but the silver lining is "get it out of the way quickly" and it will go back to normal

If the next variant of Covid causes severe anal hemorrhaging would you consider the vaccine at that point?

High for tight anuses and low for “well used” ones

Like England, Denmark is lifting all Covid-19 restrictions. Good for them!

“We are saying farewell to the restrictions and welcome to life as we knew it before corona,” the Prime Minister said.

But science what?  You don’t think this is what we will be doing within 8 weeks?  Or you just looking to score points with FS?

I'm saying that this whole shut the world down was an uneducated bad guess from the start.  Politicians thinking they can control nature.  2 years later, they realize their folly, and the stupid are lining right up with them saying don't worry, you don't need to be accountable for your actions. No biggie.

Why wait? Just do it already.

Quite amazing how the MSM has completely ignored the Canada trucker convoy. Impressive.

That was also kinda my point.  I’ve been to Mexico twice since the US started the “negative test to return” policy.  Both times were done by a nurse in a converted room in our hotel.  She swabbed legitimately but not very deep.  And not for very long.  

The Mexicans are smart.  There is nothing positive (no pun intended) that can come from finding a tourist with a positive test.  

I’m not saying they’d conceal a genuine positive test.  But they certainly didn’t seem like they were looking for one.

i found a guy who does the smog test on my cars. i feel about him the same way you feel about the test in mexico.

as long as my cars pass, i don't question anything.

To be fair the WaPo is pretty right wing. 

It's plastered all over the front page right? Haha.

If you want tile or a countertop there is no avoiding them.

Sometimes I feel bad for Larry. Every day it's the same FACE! shit to everything he says. 

But I give him credit, he always dusts himself off and spews some new nonsense, just for the cycle to repeat itself. 

Anyone can Google anything and find an article on it. Enjoy patting yourself on the back. Nobody else does.

My point is that they are ignoring the convoy and it's obvious to anyone with a pulse.

I prefer the company of Mexicans when dealing with such things. 

Mexicans don't sell countertops they just install them.

We’ve stopped potential pandemics before using the methods used with COVID.  It was just too late and COVID was too communicable.

Which pandemics and which methods?
