I used "distancing" in the classroom ... no mask, no chemicals, no vaccines, and no special precautions .... just stay in your desk, cover coughs and sneezes, and don't come to my desk for anything .... a designated student who had no ... NO ... symptoms passed out and returned papers and left them on the front corner of my desk.
All this bullshit about mandatory this and that is to justify another election by mail.

That seems to be true. There is increasing support among experts that this could be the virus burning out, as due to its extremely high contagion factor and low mortality, maybe this is how it finally ends. Because it is Christmas, I hope that all of my unvaxxed friends obtain herd immunity. Don't look up, though, there is still that planet killer comet in the night sky. Originally Posted by tobias1988

This clip is only about 10 minutes but this podcast is around 4 hours. They cover Mobley and Covid origins for about an hour there but this is more the Readers Digest version.
