Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire When does covid stop being covid

My wife, who is about a 7 on the Covtard scale (0 being Flave, 10 being Democrats), has gone to the doc three times in the last few days. She was certain she got the Chinese flu about a week or so ago, even though she's been vaxxed and boosted.

Each time, the tests come back negative and each time I tell her something like "you remember before colds and the flu got politicized? That's what you have." Then I get the nasty stares and the "I don't want to hear conspiracy theories."

Yesterday, she went to the clinic again, thinking that she has strep throat instead of the chink flu. Once again, they tested her, also for the chink flu as well as strep, and it came back negative. They told her it's a dang cold and she just needs to settle down and get through it.

And now, her sister is in town and won't stop by because she's a 10 on the Covtard scale.

I continue to ignore the nonsense and go on with my life (as it were).

I was reading up on the list of symptoms most common to the Omigod variant, scratchy throat, sinus problems, tiredness, low back pain, and loss of appetite. How the hell would a boomer know? I'd say when the Delta variant dies out, that should pretty well be the end of it. But like Cash said, they got to squeeze that turnip.
