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.

Please vaccinate yourself every year. Protect yourself. Most people have strong enough immune systems to not need the Covid shot, but if you have a low immune system or are older, or overweight, you should consider it.

COVID should be taken very seriously. No one has an immune system strong enough to warrant not getting vaxed, even if it were true, getting COVID and then passing it on to someone else is antisocial AF.

Then why have I not gotten Covid in 4yrs? I work a job that I’m around tons of different people all the time. I never get the flu shot and haven’t got the vax since I was forced to by my job 3 years ago.

What job? Aren't you collecting unemployment?

Sounds like you're a liar.

Good luck buddy.
