Too lengthy to read this now. It’s late for me.
FTR, have been feeling dizzy, sometimes with vertigo, since the third jab until yesterday. Sore muscles at the injection site still not completely gone, but dizziness is gone. Anyway, off to bed.

At our local Meijer they have a huge gas station mini grocery store in the parking lot. We go in there if we need a quick gallon of milk or loaf of bread(and pay a lot more). The last few weeks masks were non existent.

Today all the employees were wearing masks and a couple were double masked. It’s almost as if the 25% positivity in our county is finally waking people up.

Too bad it’s taking a crap ton of sick people and hospitals filling up to get them to pay attention.

I flagged a dumbass antivax post, took one of the rugrats to the pharmacy to get a shot, and now the dumbass post is gone. It’s nice to see that our mods are so effective at fighting the digital strains of that other scary virus known as misinformation.

Looks like what Claudia Conway said about him being in serious condition completely checks out.

On Friday, Oct. 2, 2020, hours after the president announced on Twitter that he had tested positive for the virus, he recorded a blood oxygen level of about 86%, Meadows wrote. That is roughly 10 points below what would be considered normal. Most healthy people have a blood oxygen level of about 95 to 98%, although some people may have lower normal readings.

Trump’s health had deteriorated so much that day that members of his medical team feared they would not be able to treat him adequately without immediate attention from hospital staff, Meadows wrote.

“That morning, Dr. Conley pulled me aside and delivered some bad news,” Meadows wrote, referring to Dr. Sean Conley, the head of Trump’s White House medical team. “Although the president’s condition had improved slightly overnight, his oxygen levels had now dipped down to about 86% and could be trending lower, a dangerously low level for someone his age.”

I wonder if he has any “long Covid” symptoms.

I mean, he’s acted like he does for decades, so how could we tell, but still.

His brain is probably very oxygen-efficient, considering that it omits certain cognitive functions such as compassion, logic, critical thinking, etc.
