Covid immunity lasts years, maybe decades

That was not the deathrate overseas when the virus really got going. And that does not include the people that have not made full recoveries, there and here.



No. Some of these people that I have known personally for years were under 40, slimmer, and in better health than most Americans. A young mother, cannot even go for a normal recreational stroll all these months later, and that is NOT what her life was like pre-Covid.

In the urban cities hit first last spring, there was a great disparity in WHO got the virus. The virus hit hardest the Latino populations, and not because of the reasons that are popularly discussed, and the real story of what happened to those people is even less popularly discussed. There is a reason I hightailed it across the country. I did not leave everything and everyone behind for no reason. Stuff was happening.

I believe this winter might be bad, and I was given the opportunity in the lull over the summer to prepare for what I believe is coming. I took it. I hope I am wrong. I want to be wrong. I want people to laugh at me and mock me come spring.

I know what I saw. I know what people I trust are telling me about overseas and back in the hardest hit urban areas

My shortwave radio came in. That is just one more thing I think I might need, come this winter. Yup, "nothing to see here," is what the media might keep telling us.

I don't like debating. I don't want to share things in public that were discussed with me privately. But, I am scared about this winter and about the long-term effects of the virus, reinfection, side-effects of the vaccine, the economy, and politics. I expect things to get messy. Real messy.

A lot happened in the last pandemic that never made the history books and the media. I expect this will be the same. Lots and lots of "nothing to see here."

It is interesting how much we discover with time.

A friend's daughter had a stroke last month. She is in her mid 20's. She recovered from COVID with no issues at all, but ended up with a blood clot (they believe from COVID). But they also believe that her asthma contributed to the effect of COVID.

So her asthma did not make COVID worse (very mild symptoms). But either the asthma or (more likely the asthma medication) coupled with having had COVID resulted in a stroke.

This is the kind of stuff that I am hearing over and over. I suffer from migraines, but that has never labeled me as an "at risk" person. If I die of a blood clot, would I be discounted as an "at risk" person that it is "statistically insignificant" because I have migraines?

Twenty year olds with mild asthma? We cannot afford for them to be having strokes, and anecdotally, I am hearing about far too many strokes and other clot problems in young people that had NEVER been labeled as "at risk" before Covid.

There is a healthy fear that is good stewardship. If I am not afraid to stick my hand in fire, so do that, am I being a good steward of my body?

I am responsible to try and survive this pandemic with my body in the best health possible. There will be work to be done cleaning up this mess, and I need to be ready to do my part.

From the start the CDC has labeled people, no matter their age, with asthma as at risk when it comes to COVID.

I am aware of this immortality thing, and it is weird. But I also have read about Christians that played with this and regret it. I don't remember the guy exactly, but I think a man in Vietnam was walking around wearing a sombrero and a bright blanket. I think he had a pet monkey that rode on his shoulder. The monkey that trusted and loved him got shot off his brightly colored shoulder. And on his last day, he was shot on the leg and suffered a permanent limp.

I don't want to make a display of myself. I don't want anyone else to get hurt. And I don't want a limp. Some things are better kept on the down-low. Jesus kept his stuff on the down-low and rebuked his mom for encouraging him to show off.

I was living in a high-rise building that was being threatened with a quarantine so strict that we would not have been allowed to leave our units indefinitely. Jack Satter House was one of the first buildings to get quarantined, but this has been happening world-wide. https://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/si...31-20_Jack_Satter_House_Resident_Services.pdf

Immortal doesn't stop you from being legally ordered not to leave your unit, and even if you can fly, it would be breaking the law to leave.

Immortal does not stop all the businesses from shutting down. Immortal does not stop the national guard from taking over your neighborhood with dogs and guns. It does not stop you from being pepper-sprayed as you come out of the subway because you had to use a pharmacy in another neighborhood because yours got looted or boarded up. Pepper spray in the eyes hurts. That is what happened to a neighbor of mine that dared to go shopping for essential items he was unable to still get in our boarded up neighborhood.

I can shop for food and medicine now. I can leave my unit anytime I want. No one is walking around here with guns, dogs, and pepper spray. I moved to a place with different climate and geography and architecture and way of life. My fear was not of being dead, but of LIVING like I WAS living and fear that it would get worse and at that point it would not be possible to leave.

There were people afraid to go to Auschwitz. Even if they were not afraid to die, they were afraid to LIVE there. It kinda wasn't a fun place to be.

C19 kills 21 people in every 1 million population. And those are already living on borrowed time (old folks). There’s nothing to worry about, the air is clean throw your masks away!

Please forgive me for my question. I am not meaning to be rude or to start a debate. I am curious when I hear reports that are so different from what I have observed. I am keeping track of the types of subcultures where these reports are coming from. ...

Kathleen, first - no need to apologize - this is a debate forum. Second - by asking sincere questions, you are simply increasing you knowledge.
Now asDW far as "different reports":

When I was a classroom driving instructor, I had all kinds of stats -- for example:

% Item
40 Collisions due to DWI
40 Collisions at intersections
30 Collisions due to distractions (not just cell phones)
25 Collisions due to speeding
10 Collisions due to changing lanes illegally
5 Collisions due to weather conditions
10 Collisions due to disregarding traffic signs/signals.
10 Collisions due to tailgating
5 Collisions due to Drivers Rage (AKA - road rage) (But I never met a road that ever was mad)
5 Collisions at construction sights.

180 %

Wait - 180 % - YES - 175%. How can that be - because many collisions have more than one factor.
and for those who believe in a specific reason will use these stats to prove their point of view. him

Top Canadian Pathologist Tells Alberta Government COVID Is "The Greatest Hoax Ever Perpetrated On An Unsuspecting Public"

Alberta top virologist expert says covid is a hoax.

Well, so far they won portraying this as something like untreatable plagues. They won the POTUS over covid, admit it, without which Trump would have been reelected. Now the elites globalists want a worldwide reset into socialism and green tech using covid as an excuse. One way to do that is wipe out middle class people and their jobs. Most people are really stupid and fearful, big government to the stupid and dumb and fearful is always the answer when fears are everywhere.

Thing is we the people have no vote if our votes were disenfranchised due to fraud. If we have no vote, then it is no longer a republic but a tyranny.
