I'm curious about what the fertility rates are going to be. What I do know is that even the FDA debunked the "ivermectin sterilizes you" myth covidians spread around.

mRNA is basically all you could get where I live

And I got it because my relatives pressured me to :/
@becassine @parisc @CSB @coolboymew @deprecated_ii @marud @ooignignoktoo @skylar I know that feel, my grandparents are moving out here soon, grandma constantly watches CNN, which has fried her brain. Seemingly unwilling to have me and their great-grandchildren visit unless we get vaccinated, but no dice. But they might change their minds.

My mom was hysterical for almost all of 2020 about the virus

Like wipe everything down with alcohol that comes into the house hysterics, even though I showed her the papers that showed it wasn’t transmitted through objects

She was just constantly going after me about it and asking why I thought I knew better than medical professionals blablabla
Eventually I caved under the pressure
@becassine @CSB @coolboymew @deprecated_ii @marud @ooignignoktoo @parisc @skylar Christ, my dad was like that too. Wiped down everything with bleach. I came back from Wendy's to get a burger once and he claimed I was trying to "kill them all". But he chilled out after I showed him side effects, poor efficacy, over-inflated mortality rates, all the shit governments & corpos have been up to.

I had very similar experiences with my parents
Unfortunately mine were far less willing to listen to reason
“Why would the government do something malicious on purpose?”
But so much of Quebec just believes the government has our best interests at heart. It is religious dogma near impossible to break through

@becassine
I can unfortunately very much confirm this. My parents refuse to believe that sometimes the government lies or is just straight up incompetent. However no matter what we do, Anglo Canada hates us simply for existing.

Someone (I think jeff Fillion) pointed out that many quebecois still treat the government like a religious class even though the church and government are separate now, and I think that’s true
@becassine @bakubased @CSB @coolboymew @deprecated_ii @marud @ooignignoktoo @parisc @skylar Maybe convince your family that the Quebec government has been infiltrated by the English and the whole covid thing is just a way to exert more power over the French.
@parker @bakubased @becassine @CSB @marud @deprecated_ii @coolboymew @ooignignoktoo @parisc @skylar there are places that are completely open and its not like there’s the slightest indication that there’s any pandemic beyond media propaganda, so it’s hard for me to understand how people can tolerate the ridiculous restrictions some governments are imposing.

@bot
At least here where I live people are already very irritated. My family in Québéc have hardly seen any impact beyond the media (except for Radio X) of the "pandemic."

My mother had COVID but wasn't aware until she had a PCR test, so it's not like it was severe.

>hoo, boy howdy. If this covid thing goes on another 3 years and I have to get 5 more boosters, I might start to get irritated, I tell you hwat

@parker
In my area the normies are starting to awaken. Luckily my state hasn't gone full idiot and demand proof of vaccination most places.

There's nobody wearing masks here. I think only like 50-60 are vaccinated and a lot were older people/minorities who were scared of dying or had someone get it early on. Meanwhile a blue city an hour away has a mask mandate and a marginally higher rate of it, but things were still open and nobody gave a shit when I didn't wear it.

@parisc
Some jobs have mask mandates for employees, and that's the only reason I wear them. Healthcare centres here usually have you wear them, but it's a hospital so tbh I get it.
The only reason I don't mind wearing a mask at work is because I don't have to do the retail smile™ at customers.
