So this is the other side of it as well. Stigma of being a Covid19 survivor.

Survivor is a good thing. Means you are alive. Even returning to normal life.

Not sure that vid makers shouldn't go back to social sciences & how to do journalism 101 classes.

Because people protecting their health is common sense... not social stigma or ostracization.

Aka yes.
While some things may be hurtful?
Imo this take on 'covid survivor' is pure BS.

It's also massively insulting to people fighting for their lives, that kind of Oh. How terrible. Can breathe well. So ostracized!!

People should do what say Sierra Leone did with ebola recently and start issuing certificates of recovery, instead. :sneaky: Look at you! You were on the brink of death a month or two ago. And now you can even see the paper from your normal bed, awake for a few mins on your own! :woot: Soo well done. :happy:

Don't like the attitude?
Change it.

But complaining about surviving helps no one.

Surviving covid 19 doesn't mean you lose being able to have a concern.

I'm just glad we are arresting, deporting and criminalising those who are stockpiling anything and trying to send it to China, here in Aus. Good news to be reading in these times. China is all good, apparently, yet their Government is still passing orders to their global nationalists to send goods back to China. Idiots. These are the times I just love ASIO and intelligence organisations.

Oh... and we have the constant issue of those buying up specific baby formula and sending that to China - also now being arrested, goods seized and donated to non-profits for distribution. Good to see a total crackdown on these numpties. Countries need their local goods more than ever right now.

Double ouch. US aircraft carrier trying to contain massive outbreak within the 5000 odd crew. That is not good.

doesn't mean you lose being able to have a concern.

Which is also not what I'm saying, though.

I'm saying it's demotivating to tell people even if they survive, life will be awful.

Or to frame that as some sticking to you social stigma.

Instead of encouraging lookout for recovery...

Especially given there isn't even a vaccine yet.

I don't know when those in the US is supposed to get those relief checks. Maybe I don't qualify?

if you filed a tax return and make less than 75K you automatically qualify. The challenge is going to be when. They say it will be direct deposit within the next 3 weeks but the folks at the IRS who will be issuing them says it could be a couple months at least.

That's too long without money. ( a couple of months) People will go back to work. They'll have to.

On the upside, people who will do what they’re f*cking told.

 

[anthony]

True that.
