Note that in 1918 they didnt even try to close churches.
Or our OTC medications make 1918 prescription meds look like snake oil. Really, medicine has come a long way.
Great catch! I had not even noticed the black nurse and, you’re right, nobody cares.
On a related note, I also noticed the very alluring eyes of the second gal from the left (third person from left). The other day Rush read the latest Offended Snowflake Complaint — masked women are taking offense at hard stares from men which they perceive as sexist and threatening. I actually do find myself thinking when I see a masked woman “Wow, what gorgeous eyes. I wonder what she looks like.”
If only they had had HCQ back in 1918. They’re probably lucky they didn’t have ventilators, though. :)
“So, you think..”
And you think that homosexual attraction to little boys is just fine, right?
See? Two can play that game.
So don’t play that game.
Also notice that the white guy on the left has his arms around the white woman on the left and the black woman. Very interesting pose given that they are waiting for the train on the commuter platform! He seems to have a harem of three comely young lasses!
In regards to everyone being altogether right in their own opinion...
I have tried to accommodate the sincerely held concerns of others. My biggest beefs are the non essential surgery cancellations and delays which I know actively killed people and caused enormous suffering; the extreme hypocrisy regarding BLM riots and Big Lib Funerals and any other gathering or funeral; and the first amendment mayhem in re restraining church worship.
As far as church worship goes I have been willing to tolerate many annoying things like requiring masks, requiring we sit in family groups, requiring a temperature check, or requiring hand washing. While I dont like these sorts of things Ill go along. They dont violate my
conscience, at all.
Telling me my church cannot gather and worship as to the required elements of that is a bridge too far and completely unacceptable. As is telling me my dad can only have ten people at his funeral or my friend that his cancer biopsy is indefinitely delayed.
Im not saying that, nor do I believe that.
Recently articles are appearing that the antibodies might last a short time. Possible only 120 days.......if true, we need to get our $hit together because people will get re-infected.
A vaccine may or may Not work. Just have to wait and see.
Im not an advocate of closing churches at all.
Keep a distance, wear a mask.
Living doesnt need to stop, we just need to adapt.
“Whats amazing is how some people have to polarize every issue. Now we have Maskers and Anti-Maskers”
The article points out that it was the same way in 1918 and 1919. Human nature does not change.
Good. We now have the straw man arguments and name calling. That means I can call you a moron because you started it. Moron.
Nobody is arguing against surgeons and their assisting staff wearing masks, gloves and gowns, or washing their hands and maintaining sterile precautions when they cut your body open and expose your entrails to the environment. What we are talking about is wearing face coverings to prevent the spread of a mostly non-fatal virus. We will benefit more from people getting it and dealing with it with their immune systems than avoiding it on the slight chance it might cause us to "test positive".
Such drama.
Surprised you didnt throw in Mark of the Beast for good measure.......
I noticed that, too.
Flattery you get you no extra points.
I know Im smarter, sexier too, dare I say.
Umm...If you are comparing the terrifying Spanish Flu to the not-so-terrifying WuFlu, then you have a problem.
BTW, the WuFlu has a 99% survival rate. Youll forgive me if Im not living in terror of the Chinese virus.
You speak like a Karen...
There is a Big difference between covid and the spanish flu. No one was immune from the 1918 flu. It took the lives of people from toddlers to old folks. My great grandfather lost 4 kids all under the age of 4, his first wife age 25 and his second wife age 30. Then the flu took him at about age 45.
Also, the medicine available then was medieval compared to what we have today.
And the maskers from 1918 had their noses over the masks too
There is actually merit to wearing orange when hunting.
There is no demonstrable merit to wearing a mask.
You need better examples.
What difference do masks make if you can freely touch product/produce and then not put everything you touched into your cart.
Oh Crap!
Im jumping into my Time Machine at 1300 hrs.
I have Trirexcon 3000.......its way better than the 2000. The 3000 gets you right to the exact day.
When get back there to 1918.......I shall discipline the infidel.
