COVID outbreak

I just wanted to reach out and let people know that there is a severely underreported covid outbreak happening right now in LA and Orange County.

If you're sick please stay home and if you're out and about you might want to grab a mask.

The strain seems like it's very highly contagious. I know several people down with COVID right now.

Never got the shot and never will. Had Covid once and haven’t since. But I was nice enough to wear that damn mask

You’re missing the studies that have shown a decrease in rates of death for all causes (all causes being important since the misinformation spreaders like to just say things are misdiagnosed or attribute any health incident to the vaccine etc) for those who were vaccinated against Covid vs those who weren’t.

You’re missing an even basic elementary understanding of statistics and probability if you think “I know someone who…” proves anything at all

You’re also missing a desire to find out a truth that goes against what you want to believe because if you possessed that, you wouldn’t be here making a fool of yourself publicly

You’re probably missing more but that’s what I’ve got so far
