For more information, just research "Hygiene hypothesis" "Many parents believe that their children must be kept in an environment that is as clean as possible, but some research suggests that being exposed to what many would call unclean conditions is good for a child's immune system. Research has indicated that children who are kept in very clean environments have a higher rate of hay fever, asthma and a wide range of other conditions. This is what is called the hygiene hypothesis." https://www.livescience.com/54078-hygiene-hypothesis.html Best find yourself a filthy ghetto in Columbia or Costa Rica. Go live there it's obviously suits your theory Preferably without internet access Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has children building up their immune system in any living conditions got to do with the current situation where the casualties are predominantly the older and those with existing conditions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way. Our cases are coming down now. I believe in the Philippines they are now further easing restrictions. How's it going where you are? Don't bother!

You seem to think that your "freedom" has more value than the lives of other people. It is people with the "my freedom, my rights, me first, I will take my chances, and FU#% the rest of you" that has made the USA the covid capitol of the world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no state right either. Edited February 14, 2021 by scott h Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you say is true. However that is what "freedom" is all about. Its all about the slippery slope. Once you compromise one "inalienable" right, what is to stop another from being stomped on? As Thomas Jefferson once said "The tree of liberty must be refreshed by the blood of patriots,,,and tyrants" The victims of covid are just as much patriot's as soldier who have died on the battle field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is of course your right to refuse a vaccination but it is equally the right of the airlines to require it for entry to their private places of business. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, you are focusing on one single element and excluding all other aspects of daily life, and an element which is totally irrelevant to the vast majority of the people living here? Okay. Complete nonsense to suggest we are in a lockdown situation here and you know it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
