Genuine question: in regards to this latest (supposed) coronavirus wave that's mostly among the young, does anyone have a photo of a person under 30 who is hospitalized for coronavirus?
That age group is most likely to highlight their COVID experience on their Instagram stories. I’ve seen one person under 30 this entire year on my feed mention they had COVID. He said he had a really bad head cold for 2 days.
That’s it.
Yeah someone on here was pointing that out about the social media aspect a little while ago. TBH if a person under 30 was hospitalized for coronavirus you'd probably have to break every finger on both hands to stop them from making a series of IG posts about it. So it really seems genuinely odd to me that there don't seem to be many (if any) around.
That visual of a social media addicted millennial with broken fingers is a good one.
Now imagine their clever workaround of using their nose to peck at the screen like one of these drinking birds:

PCR tests are far too sensitive - they return positives well after someone is not infections. They pick up on viral fragments and at levels way too low to be scientifically helpful in managing a pandemic. sauce
IMO what we're seeing is a reflection of what has existed in society since this outbreak occurred last fall with the vast majority of infections occurring in younger, healthier individuals who exhibit ZERO or very MILD symptoms and get over the sniffles in a day or two. Yes, this disease can be very bad for those at greatest risk (age, obesity, vitamin D deficiency), however the young and healthy play the most important role in a path toward herd immunity - does it make sense yet why the governments have wanted to slow this down and stop herd immunity?
Best the left can do is ALL share the 1 person under 40 that didn't wear a mask and died. I'm like.. Congrats, you guys found 1 person in a country of 328 million
I had one guy say we can't count on heard immunity because one guy got sick twice with it. One guy. I read the article he's basing this on and it turns out he didn't have symptoms the first time.
My neighbor is an ER nurse who said that they have had a TOTAL of 5 pediatric kung flu cases at her hospital, and they did NOT come in for that reason. They simply tested positive after they had come in for unrelated medical issues. No covid hospitalizations for kids here. And, given the questionable results of the tests, these kids probably just had a more recent cold.
Without pre-existing conditions? I doubt it.
Check out the blue lines.
So it's more or less the case that younger people, that are supposedly testing positive in such large numbers right now, are not only not dying but are also not even being hospitalized?
