This is not the first time I’ve heard of “exposure therapy” for Covid. Doctors will suggest a patient catch COVID so they will be less afraid of it
It’s appallingly dangerous. there’s nothing wrong with being afraid of a life changing vascular virus
Masking isn’t a sign of weakness - it’s strength

I was told to seek mental help by a primary doctor because I was wearing a n95 and demanded that she wear one too. She then tried to talk me into just catching Covid because they can treat it now. 1st and last time I ever saw her.

This is interesting
Food recalls way up since 2022
I suspect we'll see similar performance trends in all industries
We just have to look

It seems like there are a lot of food recalls so I pulled the data. Look at how much it has happened since the start of COVID. More evidence of bad cognition and decision making as infection sequelae?
