People seem to forget that the biggest fear is the fear coming from the greedy that they will lose money. The largest amount of panic has been surrounding the economy and greed. Most of the hysteria is surrounded by people trying to convince people this is minor and not a big deal- or that "my freedums" about simply wearing a mask or getting the vaccine.

The rest of us have been largely calm, logical, and rational listening to the science and following their directions to wear a mask, keep distance, and get your vaccine.


Not that I want to go back, but I don't recall many panicky posts from people worried about the virus, even including the people who have been directly hit- either getting the virus themselves or a very close person to them. But the constant barrage of "why are you so afraid, this is BS science,, etc" - yea.
 
As a retail employee, I love that 99.99999% of you are wearing your masks and honoring mask policy as outlined by your state.

I'm growing weary of those who look at lowest-level retail/service employees and expect us to enforce mask mandates on top of everything else we're supposed to do.

Speaking as somebody who is also needle-shy, do not worry about anything. The last shots I have gotten I have literally not felt. Needles are engineered so well now they are literally painless. I freak out way worse than you do, and I have finally calmed down because there is just no sensation anymore. It's fucking incredible.

Crazy - me, too. I was hospitalized twice for dehydration, when I was 5 and 7. Just never really took to needles after that! When I was in high school, I decided to try to get over it by giving blood. My arm would physically hurt from the time I made the appointment until it was all over - days or weeks. Same thing happened when I had to get tetanus or MMR boosters. Anyway, after about the 4th time giving blood, they asked me to stop coming back - I guess it's a ton of extra paperwork when you pass out with the needle in your arm.

And I agree - the vaccines ain't nothin'.

I didn't expect a human to fail the test.
 
I'm really hoping to go on an alaskan cruise next summer. I know the nitwits are screaming about vaccine passports = communism or some dome crap, but the fact is that no cruise line wants another plague ship. Further, and I only learned this recently, but many countries require all passengers on board meet their international vaccine requirements or they won't let them dock. I think Canada is one of those, so if they add Covid to their required vaccinations, then you can either get the vaccine or not go on an Alaskan cruise.

Or you can freedom your way into making your world smaller and smaller and smaller.
