I'm still dealing with a slew of relatives who both deny the reality of Covid, the need for ANY vaccines for ANYTHING, the need to distance/mask for pandemics, AND who take pleasure in mocking and jeering at someone like me who is fully vaccinated to the latest variant, influenza, pneumonia and RSV (because, as they all know, I've had open heart surgery duh!). I've also been a nurse for 30+ years and taught, among other things, community Infectious Control programs plus conducted Flu Clinics for nursing students.
But sure, knock yourself out, listen to Joe Rogan (who is their messiah), and mock the scientific health care professional and vulnerable member of your family. They also, surprise surprise, refuse to allow any of us to discuss this and do a LaLaLa
hands over my ears I don't hear you maneuver. They solidified into a circular brain clusterf*k.
My point, beyond the rabid unscientific selfishness/thoughtlessness and sheer pig headedness of it, is the so sad socially isolating effect and family-splitting that it has created. Breaks my heart, which is already half-broken.
