Crazy things you've heard people say about Covid-19

[robinb]

The reports of 150,000 people dead from Covid is just a huge hoax because hospitals are paid more for Covid deaths and they are lying to make more money.

Same person, whose 64-year old sister is now in the hospital suffering from pneumonia after testing positive for Covid 10 days ago: "She's not sick from Covid because she tested negative after being admitted.".

I’m still hearing some people say it’s a hoax. No idea how this ridiculous idea started.

We’re really early in the spread of COVID. A lot more people are going to get it.

I know exactly how that ridiculous idea got started.

OK, I have this one in the bag now.

Someone literally just said he thinks he caught covid by breathing it onto his own mask.

I'm getting really irked at the "I'm not cowering in fear" and "I refuse to let fear control me" nonsense.

Why don't you just go lick a cobra if you're so "fearless"? Fear exists for a very good reason. We have Darwin Awards for people who don't listen to it.

What kind of monster doesn't find the idea of saying goodbye to their intubated loved one via Facetime absolutely terrifying? Or being the reason someone else has to do that???

But "we can't live our lives like this", "we need to get on with our lives", "life is for living" dont you know!? Iv been told those things many times recently.

The only thing I think when I hear them is that the person saying them clearly isn't grateful for what they already have around them.

If you catch COVID and survive, you’re not going to enjoy living with the long hauler effects. Suffering isn’t getting on with our lives.

Literally anyone trying to argue they don't need to wear a mask, or that it's OK to dine indoors or go to a bar.

Aliens and witches told him that.

 

[Dan Murphy]

Aliens and witches told him that.

And that alien DNA was being used in medical treatments, and that scientists were cooking up a vaccine to prevent people from being religious.

Let's calculate this out. So 99% of cases are harmless. We have 2,343,757 cases that have resolved one way or the other. Yes I know we have far more cases than that but the rest have not resolved yet so we do not know what the outcome is. 99% harmless would be the same thing as 1% harmful. That 1% is 23438. Subtracting that harmful figure from the total death count, That would mean that about 130,000 of the deaths were harmless!!!!! If one prefers including cases that have not resolved in the equation too, it still means about 108,000 of the deaths were harmless!!!!

Mommy. Where's Grandma?
Well Timmy she died. But you'll be pleased to know she's one of the 108,000 harmless deaths.

It's the generic 30 word vocabulary game. Everything is either terrific, incredible, stupid, loser, or sayings like great job, great guy, will take care of it, etc. Always be vague so nobody truely knows exactly what you're talking about. Makes it harder to ever be wrong, and easier to slide out of when caught.

In this case the vague word 'harmless' was used. Guess that could mean if we know less than 1% of the dead people then that's harmless to us because we don't know them. Or the 5%+ who get severely ill... that's harmless too because they didn't die.

I was thinking his mom had spirit sex with a demon. Gotta watch out for them witches that make you have astral sex with demons you know.

The only thing that would make this more outrageous is if it was a duly elected US Congressman that said it.

Hospitals are paid extra by Medicare for coronavirus patients, not deaths.

it must be true. I read it on the internet.

I know exactly how that ridiculous idea got started.

Representative You meet (1st Texas). Sorry, Texans.

I find it funny how many people who relentlessly call out the 'covid fear sheep' own at least 10 guns and 2 vicious dogs themselves, and are prepped to the gills for simultaneous apocalypses But yeah, everybody else is letting fear get the best of them.

 

[spiders]

There are two extremes to this. One end thinks none of it is real and the other end thinks that getting it is a certain death sentence. Neither is true.

I am a firm believer that everyone needs to start going back to work. Nobody feels entirely comfortable working right now but you take reasonable precautions, just like everything else in life.

 

[roomthreeseventeen]

"So 99% of cases are harmless" is not even close to the truth.

 

[belleatdisney]

Hospitals are making up/ falsifying test results because they get paid more for covid patients.

That would be a completely hilarious coincidence indeed if a Congress critter repeated what the person I heard it from said.

And those demons can transmit STD's too. That's what Doc Immanuel said. I thought I got an STD because BF was cheating on me, now I'm not so sure I did have that weird dream last month.

World leader(s) enthusiastically sharing her and America's Frontline Doctors' findings and beliefs gives me great confidence, along with their freshly bought matching embroidered lab coats. They look so good.
