    I cited data and base my opinions on data. You have ignored data regarding vaccines.

    You are free to try and distract with Chicago athlete stories.

    Should be noted that the tests are free at Walgreens or CVS. My friend visiting had to get one and paid $0 before their flight out.

    No they don't...why you keep saying dumbass **** like this is beyond me.

    Far as the tweet, Xi said they would be at zero covid and he'll be damn if the numbers don't reflect it and dead people don't count against it.

    Because some of you guys defend even the dumbest "measures" and many of you were advocating for no covid/zero covid. This is just consistent enforcement of the untenable strategy many of you advocated. Australia and New Zealand with their camps for infected people weren't much better than this.

    I don't know what this is meant to mean. Xi is an idiot.

    I don’t agree with mask mandates, there will never be zero Covid, and it’s at a point now where I don’t care anymore. Most sane Democrats I’ve spoken with feel the same way.

    Then you are one of the reasonable ones. You will surely have seen that there have been folks on the forum who still cling to their "measures".

    That graph suggests unvaccinated students are more likely to be infected than vaccinated students, if we assume 80% of students tested were vaccinated. An infected student is more likely to transmit the virus to others than an uninfected student.

    I know, stating the obvious. But people seem to often discount transmission as one of the risks when kids get infected. A kid is very unlikely to fall seriously ill. But they can still spread it just as easily as any adult to others.

    No lefty I know - and I know a ton - even remotely supports these Shanghai lockdowns. Give us all a break.

    Plenty of people in the US, UK, Germany - mostly leftists - who advocated for lockdowns, vax mandates, strict mask mandates, etc. the whole time - basically "zero covid" fanatics. NZ and Australia had internment camps for people infected with Covid. NYC - governed by a leftie - is still masking toddlers. Only a judge stopped the insanity of masking toddlers (and everyone else) on airplanes in the US. We still do that crap (forced masking on planes) in Germany (left government and health minister (an idiot of epic proportions).

    It's the Left that is still upholding demands for vax mandates, lockdowns, mask mandates, mandatory testing, etc. etc.

    This absolute moron here has been panic mongering and demanding harsher "measures" the entire time:

    https://twitter.com/DrEricDing

    He is also quoted here: https://zerocovid.us/

    https://zerocovid.us/about-us

    Also, the current "Covid Czar", https://twitter.com/ashishkjha is in the same camp.

    In Europe, a TON of "prominent lefties" signed a zero covid petition which in essence demanded measures like in Shanghai: https://zero-covid.org/language/en/

    Okay, I guess? You found some crazies. Branding all leftists with the most extreme view accomplishes nothing, but you do you.

    I guess as a rightist, you embrace how the Taliban treats women. I'm sure I can find tweets to reinforce that. Sad.

    Which I have not done.

    But it's a fact that the Left has been more in favour of restrictions and "measures" such as lockdowns, mask mandates, vax mandates.

    I understand you don't want to hear it, and you don't want to be associated with that. Good for you.
