So we had a "town hall" at work this morning and - of course - Covid came up. We talked about the shots, immunity, etc. and one coworker mentioned that he'd taken an antibody test and had come back positive. He said he was shocked because he hasn't been sick in years.

The question was asked whether he would have preferred a negative result and he said the point was moot.

That got me thinking. For me, a negative result would be aa damned strong indicator that the world's most contagious virus ever isn't everything it's supposed to be. I behave as I do during flu season. I wash my hands and stay away from people who are coughing and sneezng. Yeah, I wore a mask when it was required so as not to cause trouble for local businesses that I patronized, but that's it. My life is 100% back to the way it was pre-hysteria.

What say the rest of you?

What this comes down to is can you trust the institutions manufacturing these tests and procedures for testing?

My answer is no. I can't trust them. So nothing that they tell me based on their religion of science matters.

You already know, by using logic and experience, what the truth is. You do not need the authorities who were never selected based upon any virtue much less trustworthiness to vouch for your observations.

Good point. No, I don't think we can.

Using logic when talking about The Wuhan Flu with most people is a frustrating experience.

Was watching a great video of people who could still use logic the other day.

They were talking about how we think this is the greatest and most advanced, smartest generation to have lived.

In fact, we are the dumbest. Can't function without electronics/complicated production of goods and services, and can not do much besides push buttons on an electronic to get answers. Humans are being rapidly degenerated, and it isn't even the miscegenation that is causing the majority of it. But be sure that there is tons of angry hornet nests being stirred to point the finger at the small percentages who are doing that very thing. Don't mind the fact that humans are electing to be nothing more than a consumerist who never learns any valuable skills or abilities to think outside of what the hive tells them is the truth.

Yes. It's frustrating. And futile.

I agree that we are dumbing down, but I disagree that these observations show that. We are being programmed to operate on a narrow band of skills, certainly narrower than a 1920's homesteader, but they are skills nonetheless. Operating in the modern world isn't so easy. You can see people failing to operate it on the regular.

How much did it cost?

[–] • 1 pt

They are about $30 on amazon and easy to put on your existing toilet.

Or get a little hand held bidet bottle for like $10 and try it out.

Ahhhhhhh.

Spouse and I were both sick the first week+ of August. Both had an antibody test two days ago. One of us came back negative, and one came back positive, so yeah, the whole thing reeks of fuckery afoot.

You're not the first person I've heard something like that from. My next door neighbor, for example, tested positive for Covid even though he was symptom free. A few weeks later he came back with a negative antibody test.

I agree and have acted similarly although in the past several months worn no masks anywhere. Iwore an n95 the first months when it seemed like it was serious.

I have been thinking of getting an antibody test too. Just curious.

I was thinking about it too, but how reliable can the tests be?

Can you trust a test made in some shitty Chinese factory, then used by losers who couldnt get a job besides a nurse?

Prove COVID as advertised and "vaccinated" against exists first.

Its a common cold, the influenza, etc. It is endemic - not ever to go away and we will live with it forever. So yeah, we've all likely had it or something similar enough to have whatever the tests look for. Do you trust the tests? Do you trust big pharma and big gov who are literally fucking each other and laughing at us?

"having anti-bodies" should be enough to be in lieu of a vaccine, and anyone who doesn't think so would need to explain. In reality the test gives false positives if you have been exposed to various other things, but i don't really care about that.
