If you are tired of them, don't click on them. Why try to censor something where others may have an interest?

You could ask an ICU nurse to explain the difference to you . 95% of covid patients on ventilators are unvaccinated. 85% of hospitalizations due to Covid are unvaccinated. Best get information from those on the front lines and you might appreciate the difference or not .

Since you made a post about a topic you don't want to see, I feel compelled to respond to a thread about which I can't care less. Funny how that goes.....

If you don't like them then don't read them. Don't try to control other people!!!

It's not so much that the topic gets old. There is new information daily that can be important. What gets old is the same 3 or 4 people spewing the same tired message to each other over and over all day long.

I enjoy reading the covid posts because we have a couple of medical professionals that separate the myth from the facts. For some reason, unlike others on here, my computer allows me to skip the threads I do not wish to read. Funny about that.
Holy horseshoes Batman......I agree with that........ damn?

Boring? Proper action, prevention, and preparation information for a worldwide pandemic? Yes, why worry? And why worry if they pushed you out of your sky-diving plane and you had yet to put on your parachute? The Alfred E. Newman strategy of life.

Since the SCIENCE now states that anyone with all the shots can still get and pass on the virus what does someone have to fear of those who choose option B?

If you live in fear, then fear is your master and you shall forever be afraid.

I prefer to Hear it on the news (which is bad enough) I don't want to read about it in Talk of The Villages. Too many opinions and misinformation.

Ask where in TV you can find rapid home COVID tests, that is Villages related.

Whether you like it or not, COVID is political - every thread goes down that road. It’s where people get nasty. I agree, I don’t read the COVID threads anymore, but there are so many, I find I don’t come to TOTV nearly as much as I used to.

We don’t have threads about enlarged prostates, glaucoma, etc. unless its to recommend a doctor near by.

There’s not a thread about the singer at Redsauce in the “Medical Discussion of Central Florida forum.”
When I am in a forum about SEC football, I read about football, not COVID.
Speaking of "good drivers" ......I found out today that there is a recent statistical increase in RECKLESS driving to the point of killing more people. Also up are suicide, drug deaths, and one other factor, which sorry, I forgot.
