My roommates still don't believe in it. Libertarians/half-open fascists. One had a chemistry teacher at the start of the pandemic tell him it was no worse than the flu and she had some connection to the CDC. That was good enough for him. Anti-masker from day one. The other is a hippie who recently had a 50+ page collection of antivax shit dropped off by a man who was at least 80 years-old. He's taking the CHAZ approach of wanting to start a community garden when society collapses as a result of COVID while not believing in COVID. They're both constantly around a high risk late-stage pregnancy, and I'm not even sure she or her husband are vaccinated because he's a libertarian and she's a stereotypical teenage dependa. I'm not sure which combination of them will die but I might inherit a gecko or snake which would be cool.

Pros: $550, 15 minutes from mountains, 20 minutes from university, nice kitchen, landlord visits once or twice a year
Cons: 7 people across two floors, they're all right-wingers, everyone around here is a right-winger, evangelical churches are colonising the town while militia stickers are on more and more of the cars
That $550 went a long way until it didn't. I'm never living with roommates again if I can help it.
it's much less lethal than delta though so far right?
That's really good news for the completely jokerfied health worker comrades
It kinda sounds like that's entirely due to the vaccine and nothing to do with the virus, since 99% of the people who end up in the hospital are unvaccinated
I do not know why news organizations keep saying this, and insanely reckless that they do. There is little to no evidence that it’s less severe than previous strains. However, all covid strains are less severe in people who’re vaccinated or have previously been infected, which at this point is most people. That’s why less people are being hospitalized.
Oh, give that about six weeks, and we'll have a batch of new highly-transmissible variants. We'll get to sigma eventually. I'm just curious what they're going to start naming them after we loop back around after omega.
