the pandemic is not happening in my country

So has your country closed it's borders to the rest of the world, because if not, that's not how any of this works.

i remember living in china, and the pandemic being pretty much over by early summer 2020. some small flare ups and strict pandemic control after that though. things were good for a couple of years.

then the rest of the world decided that it's unfair that china showed that controlling the pandemic was possible, and that every other country were letting their citizens die by the tens of thousands for no reason.

finally restrictions were being lifted, a huge spike in infections obviously resulted, and immediately chinese people travelling overseas were being treated like garbage at every international airport, and in western news there were racist stories about how much these people spread disease, like back to january 2020. suddenly for a short time those western countries cared about the spread of covid again, because they could be racist about it again

Okay it turns out we're the libs and that person is posting from the DPRK. Everyone apologize for not recognizing AES posters.

They're re-opening tourism (apparently by the end of this year), so they won't be safe for long.

[-] [email protected] 34 points 9 months ago

I hate when you bring up factual information against a COVID denier, then they say it doesn't apply because they live somewhere else, but fail to actually provide any information that is relevant to them. Not to mention that vaccination rates are low worldwide so there is no herd immunity or any mechanism to prevent infection rates from homogenizing worldwide so if there's a huge bump in America there necessarily has to be a bump worldwide, how could there not be?

I had covid 2 weeks ago that made me take 7 days off work lol but yeah it's over

[-] [email protected] 22 points 9 months ago

In your body the pandemic has been over for at least 2 weeks.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 9 months ago

Covid stays in your body for up to years after. The party is never over. covid-cool

Good sweet fuck i hope so

[-] [email protected] 16 points 9 months ago

unless you live in nutomic's basement then your local conditions don't apply 🙃

[-] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

Oh right sorry my bad

[-] [email protected] 14 points 9 months ago

Betting they're totally granting extra sick time for that right?...

1st I got it was a few weeks after extra covid sick time ended in my company.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

No, but if i had been here for over a year then yes i would have.

Provincial government mandated 5 paid sick days during the time when governments pretended to care and we get to keep them forever.

My job is actually pretty good but only if you've passed the year mark

[-] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

That's good!

[-] [email protected] 28 points 9 months ago

People still catch it routinely where I live, and the local chuddery get hyper aggressive and confrontational if you mask up, so I have some coworkers that despite being immunocompromised won't because of the logic that a beating by a deranged chud will end them quicker than covid, and the results are what one would expect which is enraging.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 9 months ago

it really sucks that nutomic is still an admin at .ml, Dessalines is cool as hell and I respect them a lot, but I have no idea how this fash sympathizing unequivocal piece of shit is allowed to stick around. it makes no sense.

[-] [email protected] 19 points 9 months ago

he and dessalines are the original/main devs of lemmy

[-] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago

Must be good at something specific that most people aren't.

I needa get off .ml but my application to hexbear never got approved :(

Dessalines is cool as hell

Do cool people often hang out with fash sympathizers or does Dessalines get a pass

[-] [email protected] 13 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

they have a GitHub page with essays on communism and US atrocity documentation, that's pretty cool imo.

"Those stats are from some foreign country, completely irrelevant to me"

Has your country locked down all international travel? By that logic Covid being found in Wuhan in 2020 was irrelevant to the rest of the world because it's "a foreign country." This mf not understand the modern globalized world?

Oh apparently from Germany, so basically the same chauvinism.

Germany: That famous isolated island in the middle of the sea with no contact to anywhere else in the world.

"Those stats are from some foreign country, completely irrelevant to me."

What a compelling nationalistic argument...

[-] [email protected] 15 points 9 months ago

Good thing viruses abide by national borders

[-] [email protected] 14 points 9 months ago

It’s extra ignorant that he’s doubling down, but I know there are people here who haven’t masked up in two years or more and have similar reasoning, just with the social sense to not say it out loud.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 9 months ago

What country do they supposedly live in lmao

[-] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

I'm guessing US or Canada, maybe Australia Or Germany.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago

some mystical place so dissimilar to the US that they can dismiss data from the US as completely irrelevant 🤷‍♀️
