    You mean after most people got vaccinated and it mutated to a less deadly version and deaths went down and it became less of a news story.

      While that is certainly true, I worry about the fact that almost nobody cares about getting Covid anymore. Long Covid is still a thing and can basically destroy your life, the risk of getting it not really decreasing with each infection (you are basically rolling the dice each time). There is also the fact that Covid infections decrease intelligence even if you didn’t get long Covid.

        Had it in 2022, dealt with issues well into 2023. I’m mostly good by now again but I certainly feel dumber and find it harder to concentrate.

        This answer literally means: nah not the part that is easily provable, I mean the part I made up and choose to believe without evidence.

        It’s funny how little evidence you actually need to believe covid was a hoax, and the amount of evidence we have it isn’t. It’s almost like you’re part of a cult.

        While Trump was saying this, he was vaccinated too. You got played

        Pretty sure about that? What if you are speaking to someone who had someone in their family die of Covid?

          It didn’t happen to him though, so clearly it never happened. He also doesn’t believe in shark attacks, or the holocaust.
