My Experience With COVID-19

As I'm sure the world has known, COVID-19 has spread throughout the entire planet. This virus has been known to end the lives of many people's loved ones and end the freedoms that people have once beheld. This sole virus is a huge reason why the nation has been become more divided on how we should protect the people of this deadly disease. Some say that we need to shut the entire country down so it'll pass over, others like myself believe that we cannot let this virus stop us from living our lives. We cannot shut the country down, cause businesses cannot make money and consumers can't buy what they need to help their essential needs and potentially increasing the death toll. It's this big slippery slope of scenarios where it's bad news for all citizens who legally reside in this country.

Enough with my opinions about how the country should've handled it, let's talk about what the title of this post is about. I got tested positive for COVID-19 on January 31st of 2022. The variant that I had was unknown, but if I had to take a guess on which "variant" I got, it would probably be Omicron since I heard that it is the least deadly out of all the other ones. The symptoms that I had were started with a sore throat, leading to a headache, and having a stuffy nose. The coughing lasted for days and would not go away for a long time, but drinking a bunch of water definitely sped up the recovering process. I stayed isolated in my college dorm for a total of 10 days, got retested to make sure I was completely over it.

Even though I got COVID, it still doesn't stop me from not wearing a mask while I am outside since I want to breathe the fresh air. I still wear my mask inside the malls since my county is still requiring masks to be worn inside, regardless of your vaccination status. Supposedly on March 2nd, my county will be the absolute LAST county to remove the indoor mandate, let's see if that holds true.

    This is the sad truth about COVID. My father remembers when the flu spread rapidly and people were dying. He said..."We just wore our masks for a few months, then went back to our lives once we knew it was endemic."

    COVID may spread faster and many people died because the disease hadn't affected enough people yet.. Now that it has, there will be some strains which are severe and some which are light. We just need to manage it now. That is all we can do.

Should We Recall Gavin Newsom?

      As most people know, Gavin Newsom is California's governor. He ran for governor in 2018, and barely won against John Cox. Newsom is currently facing his worst nightmare, possibly getting recalled. I thought to myself, despite all the negative stuff I heard about Newsom, is there anything positive that he did for my state? Here's a Democrat and Republican perspective, along with my own thoughts on this question. Democrat Perspective Democrats believe in wanting to tax the living crap out of the rich because everything about them is "fairness". Newsom has passed an economic bill where the poorer class get a tax break, this happened during COVID since the pandemic caused a lot of jobs to be lost. The EDD and other types of COVID relief funding was used as a temporary helping hand to those families in need for when they temporarily lost their job. Another thing that he made effective is that he made the first two years of community college free. The eligible people ...

Can Children Make Life-Changing Health Decisions?

 Introduction I would like to write about this since this is a situation that is hitting somewhat towards the county that I live in. This is affecting kids, and that's where I have a problem, kids are not old enough to make their own decisions, especially when it comes to getting the COVID vaccine. As a person that loves kids, this is where we need people to stand up for the children! What is SB 866? This bill was introduced by a man named Scott Wiener. He was elected back in November of 2016 and represents District 11 in the California State Senate. District 11 covers San Francisco, Daly City, Colma, and Broadmoor. His goals are to make housing affordable, put money towards transportation systems, "easier access" to healthcare, support working families, and spread awareness of climate change. According to Wiener's website, " SB 866 permits minors 12 years and older to consent to vaccination when the vaccine is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administ...

CANCEL Cancel Culture!

I cannot believe we have come to a time in our lives where we have to be either blindly going along with what the majority says and make "disposable friends" or be an independent, free-thinker and get shit on by the majority. Which pill will you take? It's time to educate the weak-minded on the toxicity of cancel culture and remind the strong-minded ones not to cave. What is Cancel Culture? Definition According to Merriam Webster, cancel culture is defined as, "as a way of showing disproval and exerting social pressure" (Webster). So it's a way of bullying people to death until they cave to the audience and doing what they want. So much for the left's "anti-bullying" agenda, am I right? Why Cancel Culture Is Redundant These celebs are canceled for about a couple hours, then the problem blows over with a simple apology or is forgotten about by the time a new big headline comes out. You cannot permanently end these people's careers because th...
