Has Covid ruined relationships you had ?

[Claudia Love]

Well my dad caught Covid back when it was still a new thing and people thought no way could he have caught it, well he did and I went through hell not knowing if he was gonna live or die. Most of the state he lives in was catching it faster than the speed of light it seemed like at the time.

So he tells me the vaccination is good only 8 people out of millions got blood clots (his words,not stating facts) so I told him well I'm going to take moderna or Phizer and he says "good".
Fast forward I got vaccinated and he reminds me all the time he "almost died of Covid" then last night he calls me up and says "i went shopping for some steak at wal mart and some guy asked why i don't have a mask on ?

He says I told him you don't need one! the guy says to him well I'm fully vaccinated i'll take off my mask too! well that just did my dad right in he tells me he replied with "who fucken cares if your vaccinated ...."he says i don't care then he asks another shopper and says do you fucken care that hes vaccinated ?" and my dad is telling me this like he just hit a home run at the diamond and i'm totally disgusted by this behavior and the fact hes NOT VACCINATED why can he roam without a mask? Its gotten to the point that i needed to block him from my phone so i don't have to listen to his anti mask anti vaccine shit.

This is not fucken easy to do he's my father but in my mind hes acting like a fucking goon. I think covid has made a permanent t wedge between him and I. Its like he doesn't understand that it almost killed him once what seems to be his problem does he seriously not give a shit about being around with his family or is he in the right and im wrong?

Thank you for that, Dr. Teej.

false

How is result any diff?

You get vaccinated no need for mask
You recover from covid no need for mask

Both scenarios imply you now have some immunity for some period of time

Or do you think people need to wear masks forever now?

Only when you are at your family home or when there are enough distances between people.
Public and work places you still need to.
Even at parks you need to unless you are 5 meters distanced.

Only in the US is it possible and only certain states.

COVID definitely made my relationship stronger.... with TERB !

Canada as of today still require mask, vaccinated or not.

You are mixing guidelines up with what is happening in another country.

 

[TeeJay]

Ok you + Mod are referring to the guidelines, not what (should) happen practically

You can't have a different reaction in a different country / state
The virus will always behave the same way regardless of where you are physically located

 

[TeeJay]

I think most people have much better relationships as we had so much more free time
Even those working only reporting into office a few times and doing rest of stuff from home gave so much more free time

And even for our hobby there was a massive uptick as girls left in lurch over the past year try to make up for lost time

 

[squeezer]

So the fact Israel, the UK and the US are farther ahead on the double dose means nothing eh? Please enlighten us with your teachings!

We are in Canada so we follow Canadian/local guidelines.

Situation by country/region is not the same.

Only until we reached herd immunity should we even think about maybe relaxing the mask rules.

There is no consensus information regarding what you have said.

?you can read can't You

That is literally what I said
Vaccinated would not need a mask
Recovered would not need a mask

The others in this thread are claiming that Canadian variant (?) is somehow different and despite rest of world being safe somehow we are all still in danger

Rest of world?? How many countries have relaxed their mask rule? Majority of the world hasn't.
You are claiming another lie.

Excuse me, I can't read! Look at what you posted. The vaccines actually do change the reaction from country to country so DUH, you cannot not comprehend reality my genius compadre!

I think it is obvious, you do not know yourself what you say.

Lots of countries have dropped or relaxed mask laws
USA is obvious but we also have Caribbean, South American, African, Eastern Euro, Scandinavian, etc

Some (eg Finland or Denmark) who more or less avoided Covid never really had strict mask laws (and very low public acceptance of them)

Do you stand by these claims?
Is there any wording in here that you wish to change?

If you have information to back up each and everyone of your claims in this particular statement, please show them within 24hrs.

I am giving you a chance to double check your sources.
Fair enough?

 

[Mod123]

Anyone want to list countries within South America/Caribbean/Africa/Eastern Europe/Scandinavia that have mask laws up until the moment Teejay made his claim? (10:34PM Eastern Time, May 23rd, 2021)

Or anyone can find information that Denmark/Finland did for a time have strict mask laws because Teejay said they "never" did.

@TeeJay can either back up his claims with credible sources or he can re-word his post to better reflect the reality within 24hrs before I take action.

Example: According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_America South America has 12-14 countries by claiming South America in your post, are you suggesting all 12 or 14 have relaxed mask laws? If someone can list say more than half in that list still with mask laws pretty much means you are either a liar or make exaggerated claims.

If you want to provide information, be sure to provide the correct and precise information as your argument. Don't make outlandish claims and hope it sticks.

Caribbeans - Puerto Rico still imposes $100 fine for mask violations.

Not sure which countries is meant by saying Eastern Europe.

False, Denmark did have and still does have mask laws.

New ease of restrictions are in place from 21 May 2021. This means most of the society – beside nightlife and clubs – are open. Requirements regarding facemask and shield, corona passport, test and distance are still in place. There continue to be a limit to indoor and outdoor gatherings.

False, Finland did have and still have mask laws. Tho admittedly they did well in the pandemic.

In line with the proposal, all people born in 2007 or before must wear a face mask while in indoor spaces and in means of transport with persons other than those belonging to the same household. The police could impose a fixed fine of 40 euros for violation of the mask mandate.

Finnish government to impose movement restrictions and mandatory masks

Well, lumping information together does make things look larger than it really is. Saying South America sounds a lot bigger than just saying Brazil.
