It's never going to be gone, specifically because of people like this.
Just like the flu never went away after the 1918 pandemic, again, because of people like to this.
They never really acknowledged it was here. I live near one of the Colorado locations and it has been (in)famous for COVID outbreaks the entire pandemic. And, for whatever obvious reasons, In-N-Out hasn't had the same closures enforced on them that every other restaurant did. During an outbreak they're supposed to close for a few days in our state, but they're basically the only restaurant that has refused to close and has never faced repercussions out here. It's maddening.
There's TWO in colorado. One opened last year, the the other just opened in April.
More than that now, actually. There are two just in Colorado Springs and a bunch up in Denver Metro.
And yet the world still turns. Everybody else has just forgotten it, and dealt with it if they caught it. There's lots of things in the world that are "sub optimal". Deal with it.
People are dealing with it. By wearing masks
Yeah, they want to deal with it by wearing a mask but their company won't let them.
Dude, getting caught in the rain without an umbrella = deal with it. Pretending there's not still a pandemic is foolish.
This is a novel virus and we already suspect it's fucking with people's brains and hearts in ways we can't detect. We have no idea what "long Covid" is really doing to people yet. For example, if you get chicken pox as a kid, you may get shingles as an adult.
For your sake I hope being flippant about this doesn't come back to haunt you.
If only there were something you could wear to deal with it.... like a mask?
That's the difference between shitheads like you and real Americans. Real Americans want to make their country a better place to live for everyone.
Yeah. No real American would [blank]. And just because you think everybody wearing masks makes the country better doesn't mean it's a popular opinion. It's been 2byears since everybody mostly stopped wearing masks because they vaccinated. Please come to the modern day. Most people fucking hated wearing masks.
Not what I said at all. Hope you're having fun arguing with yourself, b/c no one else is interested in your insane Fox news talking points.
You went from one echo chamber to another. Just because the people around you agree doesn't mean it's actually the popular opinion.
Just because everyone else has forgotten it doesn’t mean the aware just have to shrug and forget about it. The average person is ignorant AF
