    I’m fully vaccinated now (more than 2 weeks past the 2nd booster shot). I was wearing the mask and social distancing at work for the past year. Now I only wear the mask if I’m out in public and people don’t know I’m vaccinated or people aren’t socially distancing at work around me.

    People can still spread it if vaccinated, but the risk is much lower. About a dozen people tested positive around me at work last year and I made it through the exposure without catching it.

    I did the antibody test and the Covid-19 test prior to getting vaccinated. Both were negative which seems like a miracle. The 2nd vaccination shot kicked my @## and I had to stay out of work 3 days.

      Not sure if you’re meme-ing but shutting the world down over this is a massive overreaction. Wash your hands, stay in reasonably good health and don’t be reckless. If you are in poor health take the necessary precautions. The way all of this is being handled is setting an terrible precedent that will inevitably be used to strip people of personal liberties in the future.

    (Speaking as a US citizen here) I think we should do neither really. Corona, by the information that I know, has been blown out of proportion. I mean, if you want to do those things, sure go ahead, it’s a free country. But it should not be expected f anyone to do so.

          Is removing it fair though? I feel like downvoting to oblivion is a better way to do it… I wanted to know what this guy said, now I’ll never know haha

            You can still see it in the modlog. Most removed content isn’t deleted from the server. COVID-19 is no joke and I want to minimize the chances of people getting the wrong idea and putting themselves and others at risk.

              I can’t tell you how disappointing it is to try and use a FOSS alternative to Reddit just to see comments deleted because the mod disagrees. Literally hall monitor tactics. FREE SPEECH isn’t a joke and if it’s truly free it isn’t conditional. Having enough faith in people to develop their own opinions isn’t a joke either. Don’t know what this guy said but it deserves to stand and be judged on it’s own merits or lack thereof.
