I tested positive after attending a birthday party but had two boosters already within the last 6 months. So just a sore throat and a headache.

China’s murky statistics are fueling widespread public distrust. Its narrow definition of Covid deaths “will very much underestimate the true death toll,” the W.H.O. says.

This feels like NY Times red scaring for those who want a new Cold War. I know China’s numbers are not accurate, but many US states and counties numbers have intentionally been inaccurate as well.As Cases Explode, China’s Low Covid Death Toll Convinces No One (Published 2022)

And I don't see the need for whataboutism either. We all know Florida, South Dakota, etc., are run by the American equivalent of the CCP. What does that have to do with the CCP's incompetence, exactly?

well in the article, it said this:
So while you say those states are the America CCP, the times decided to say the US has one standard.
It’s not defending Chinese incompetence and proudness, my post said Im not defending that. It’s not even whataboutism because I’m not saying it’s fine the US does it too. I’m pointing out The NY Times doing some red baiting for wannabe cold warriors like @ADevilYouKhow .

What it’s like to wear masks for Covid when most others have long since moved on.
Retired Physician from Austin: I have severe asthma so I need to wear a mask (said to herself)
Friends at yoga: you should join us
Physician: no thanks
Friends at yoga: there must be something wrong with her
Physician: people are saying I’m scared and there must be something wrong with me, I’ve never felt so isolated in my life
What did I just read? Yeah, people who are you friends or acquaintance are gonna try to figure out what’s wrong.Telling them you have severe asthma or you have a medical condition will probably make them more accommodating to your needs. I know this because I have a coworker who has autoimmune that I mask up around, because why not
Mx Nerode gets invited to an event.
Most people’s response when declining an invitation: sorry, can’t make it.
Mx Nerode: you’re crazy, the event is dangerous. Don’t come crying to me when you get sick. I’m gonna send you some literature about the dangers of Covid
This article was all feels. Nothing of value was gained from reading this.
