‘How are mask mandates and lockdowns increasing the spread of Covid?’

I don’t know; did someone on this thread said they did...?

The only people I know who got it recovered within the course of a week from symptoms to feeling normal again, they described it as a bad cold or mild flu.

I’m assuming as vaccinations go up the amount of testing goes down to those who truly are showing signs of COVID or have come in contact with a known case. I have been tested over 60 times in various states and countries but after I receive my second vaccination my need to be tested goes down...

I’d assume the same. But you know what they say about assume.

It seems almost 23% of PA residents are fully vaccinated, and 2.5x that many have been partially vaccinated. So how they coming up with nearly 10% positive rate, especially since we assume those vaccinated are probably not getting tested?

Correction to above. 2.9 million are fully vaccinated, and about 8 million total jabs.

Blue states are having covid issues. Meanwhile, red states are just enjoying themselves. Florida was supposed to have a spring break covid disaster. Oops. Media wrong again.

Useless info anyway.
What matters is who it is spreading among and who (sick and elderly)_ are protected.

A 10% positivity rate in the young is not a concern- a 10% positivity rate among the old would be a BIG concern.

There will never be herd immunity.

COVID is no longer a virus, it’s an industry.

The “crisis” will never end. There’s too much money involved now.

ā€œ Ironic that the virtually all the strictest mask mandate and lockdown states are the ones being the hardest hit.....just ironic. /sā€

Kind of like rain on your wedding day, not withstanding the fact that nothing in that song is actually ironic

Yes it is. Read the list of “substantial” increase counties.

I'm telling you it's not.

I wouldn't belive it if the state told me the sky is blue.

Our plant has 300 working and we've had 6 emplyees get.

They all got it somewhere else and all were mild.

The PCR tests are notoriously unreliable with false positives.

The overwhelming number who do get it have mild or no symptoms.

60% of cases happened in nursing homes after Tommie the Commie Wolf and Sec of Health tranny freak forced them to take infected patients.

I know people in Greene, Fayette, and Washington counties.

Some of them are scared witless about this. Just taled w/one of them this evening.
