I missed some of the posts in this thread but is this a common thing now: when a couple gets sick (like they have cold/flu symptoms and shit) they just automatically tell everyone they have COVID?
So if you get sick, you have COVID.
Un-fuckin-believable.
We have acquaintances who are in their late 20's. Have flu-like symptoms, tell us they have COVID. My wife: "Did they tell you if you have the new variant or not?" Them: "Oh, we haven't gotten tested."
pfft
The amount of bullshit (and money and power) generated from this lab-borne virus is beyond belief.
