It destroyed my son’s last year of high school. He miraculously graduated after having basically flunked everything. Staying home screwed him up mentally. Wearing masks messed him up as well. The anger I have over what they did to kids is still going. I’m in biotech. I’ve been in biotech for 28 years. Not one person in my company save a few far left non science folks think masks do anything at all. Not one. They are scientists creating the drugs of the future. They are quality control and quality assurance people. They are regulatory affairs and contamination control folks. Everyone basically laughs at the idea of paper masks stopping a virus. Yet we messed with people’s mental wellbeing by forcing these mandates. Never again.

Not sure what company you are in but if they are involved in research, testing, or manufacturing pharmaceuticals and they do NOT wear masks the I want to avoid their products at all costs!

Technology is getting better and our drug filling machines are now in what we call "isolators". They are sterilized with vaporized H2O2 (dangerous stuff if it gets out). Any human manipulations are done from outside with the big gloves attached to the isolator (picture a filling machine in a bubble like the bubble boy). Here's an example of a company making isolator tech. Cool stuff. ISOLATION TECHNOLOGY: Isolation Solutions for aseptic fill finish lines • IMA Group Just an FYI this is how EVERY company does it. I know what I'm talking about. Masks for viruses. Nope. So if you want to avoid the drugs from companies that do it my way, simple. You don't need to know my company. They all do it this way. |

Jeez next time I'm sick as a dog like I was last week (with COVID) I'll make sure you come over to my house so I can cough in your face. Y'know - so you can take a video and prove that masks do nothing.
For everyone else - I isolated for a few days after testing positive, and called my doctor's office. They said as long as my temperature didn't go above 101 for a day or more, and I didn't experience difficulty breathing, I should just treat the symptoms and not worry about anti-virals or hospitalization. My temp topped off at 100.8 on the second-to-worst day. The worst day was the day after that, when my temp was "only" 99.8. I have a low-normal average temperature of 98.2, so 99.8 is still not good. I'm still coughing, but I don't feel like my 14-pound cat strapped herself to my chest anymore. I was wearing a mask when I did go out - to protect OTHER people in case I needed to cough. I was vaccinated the day that I first started noticing I had a headache. But I woke up with the headache, and didn't get vaccinated til mid-afternoon. The next day I was starting to feel sick. The day after that I tested positive. BTW you can get 4 tests from the government again, free. If you live with another person you can get 8 total for the household.

You already know that's different. The paper mask will help prevent you from spreading the virus to others, but does very little to protect yourself from them.

You mean like Novak Djokovic? Novak Djokovic's plant-based lifestyle: The dietary secrets behind Wimbledon legend's success | Daily Mail Online One of the foundations of the Serb's record-breaking success is his plant-based diet, which he has credited with helping to elevate his performance levels. Whole food carbs such as sweet potatoes and beans are some of the most nutritious food choices on the planet. But yes processed carbs and sugar are bad. Meat causes insulin insensitivity which is the precursor to diabetes. It is extremely rare for a person on a WFPB diet to have a bad A1C level. |

All I know is, there are people who aren't getting vaccinated, and they are going to be carriers. I hope i don't end up sitting next to them at a mah jong table or playing cards. I was sitting next to some fool at pickleball who was bragging about how he had never gotten vaccinated. Seriously? You can bet I won't be sitting next to him on a bench again either.

I got a Covid booster 2 weeks ago. The reason is if I get the virus, I would definitely want it to be a mild case versus getting seriously ill or dying. I have always been susceptible to respiratory issues. Every cold, flu, strep throat, etc. I've ever had has always turned into a bout of Bronchitis. I know the vaccine won't prevent me from catching Covid, I just don't want to be miserably sick. I had Covid once in 2021; mainly sore throat, a cough, and lost sense of smell for a week. I think I felt feverish for 1 day. Yes, I ended up with bronchitis again, but a round of antibiotics knocked that out. So, for me it is worth it. I get my flu shot every year and also had the pneumonia and shingles vax. I protect my health as best I can.
Since the pandemic first started, I have not had a cold or flu. I think the key to that is avoiding crowded public places. Also, here are a couple of facts about Ivermectin: Is Ivermectin Approved to Treat COVID-19? The FDA has NOT approved ivermectin to treat or prevent the illness caused by the coronavirus. In animals, ivermectin can help prevent heartworm disease and certain parasites. It’s dangerous for humans to take any drug made for animals, including ivermectin. A dose meant for a big animal like a horse or cow (which can weigh 2,000 pounds or more) can be toxic for a person. Also, some of the inactive ingredients in an animal medication might not be safe for people.

You have introduced an argument that has nothing to do with the fact that Covid has killed millions compared to "Colds" and Flu as some have ignorantly compared it. You introduced this question about the lab in order to take the topic down a silly side street.

I haven't told you what I believe. That is what most others have done. I told you what I experienced in the REAL WORLD on the Front Lines. Your inability to see my daily experience in my detailed comment tells me you will cling to your opinion even in the face of someone holding experiential facts up to your face.
