First, sorry for your multiple loses. You have my sympathy. Considering


less than 2/10ths of 1% of the USA’s population has died from COVID that’s some extremely bad luck. There’s no doubt a person’s personal experiences can skew their perspective. Mine has been just the opposite. I know probably 30 people that have had COVID & only the very first person went to the hospital & I think that was because of the hyped hysteria when COVID first hit. Nobody knew what to expect so they erred on the side of caution. The rest of us never even went to the doctor’s office that I know of. I know I didn’t, when I had COVID.

You never mentioned the age & health of the loved ones you lost to COVID & you don’t have to but I suspect they were elderly or had health issues already. The press doesn’t talk about it but there are some (not all) who died from “COVID” that had no quality of life. While it’s always sad to lose someone, sometimes it’s a blessing, too. If those that died in your family did so before the vaccine came out, you at least don’t have to question why they didn’t get it but it was their decision if they didn’t get it and they had the chance. Now that the vaccine is working so well for most people you should feel a ton of relief they came up with a vaccine so quickly.

This topic has been discussed a bunch on this board & throughout society. You have to know that we all have opinions on it, that aren’t easily swayed. The press, big tech & big pharma have their opinions, too & we all have our own opinions about the press, big tech & big pharma. I suspect mine differ from yours on all three.
