Covid not real... 2

It's more for fun.. I do not actually believe this, but... What if...
Covid is completely made up, like 100%. The reason for it's made up non sense is/ was for control through fear AND the vaccine.
There def is a new vaccine, but if it's not used in protection from covid, what is it used for? Mk ultra in a pill?
In all seriousness.. there's so much bullshit coming out about this vaccine and I know there's a pages long topic covering, but hey, why not...

I know two guys on FB both in usa who had it The guy one I know can't walk to the end of his driveway and he got it in March. And he's a year younger than me. Slightly overweight hasn't worked at all since then.
2nd guy is like more 5 years younger than me, he's a body builder. Lost insane amount of weight, months later back at work but still not even close to 100 percent.
Both were extremely sick in hospital
Avoid this like the fucking plague it is. You might luck out and get a mild case or you could be disabled forever.

Both of my jobs involve working with people who have COVID-19.
The vaccine is for protection from COVID-19. I was asked if I wanted to receive it by my employer last week, and I've never said Yes so emphatically in my life. Everyone I work with is desperate to receive the vaccine ASAP because we are tired of being worried we're gonna make our loved ones sick day after day after day.
There is no point in entertaining what ifs like this. You're suggesting we speculate a possible world that simply does not exist. We should spend our time speculating about how to improve this world, the one that does exist. One way to do that would be to help develop the vaccine. I met a guy at the gym in July who was on one of the vaccine development teams, and I could tell he was internally motivated by a deep sense of purpose and pride. It's a good feeling. People who speculate about possible worlds that don't exist (conspiracize) are internally motivated by a deep sense of confusion and fear.

I'm in a relatively unscathed city in Canada, but even here I've known a couple of people who were sick for months with it, and a dentist I didn't really know but knew of died of it a couple of months back. I think a lot of people here are starting to lose sight of how lucky we've been though, and those numbers creep up even though we've been doing well until pretty lately.

Because people are dead and dying, that's why not.
My wife, my son, myself, have had it and it's unlike any illness we've ever had
We know at least a dozen others that have had it, including a doctor that works at a hospital who took it home to all of her kids, and one of the people we know spent an entire month on a ventilator
We know two people that lost family members to it. One of which still had kids at home to support and had to deal with losing their father right before Thanksgiving
So, crackedegg, I can't answer your question about why not ask "what if it was made-up". But I will answer WHY people ask these questions despite the fact that there is overwhelming evidence to the contrary. It's because not everyone has seen the effects of it first hand, and people are too big of fucking idiots nowadays to think for themselves and realize that just because they don't see the dead and dying or because they don't know someone that contracted it, that it really does exist, that's why
It's a slap in the face to every person that has had it, has lost someone to it, to those that fight against it, and even to those that are out there doing the right thing by simply wearing masks.

I had it, a bunch of my family has had it. I don't feel like it is a slap in the face at all.

I'm pretty disappointed in the conspiracy crowd. Like, come on, it could be like -lockdowns are to keep us inside so we don't see the spacecraft landing, masks are so that the aliens can more easily hide among us, and the vaccine is actually to protect us from going insane when they finally reveal themselves.
Instead we get: the government is trying to control you!! Like, duh. The government exists to organize society, which in a lot of ways is controlling. That's not news or a conspiracy. No imagination.

Because apparently, a lot of people subscribe to the opposite of this...
Occam's razor
In short, when considering possibilities, the most simple explanation is almost always the correct one

what it says is that the hypothesis that involves making the fewest assumptions is more likely to be the correct one.
the q-anon crowd does in fact do the polar opposite of this. the hypothesis that is accepted by the group as a whole is always the most interesting one. it's like a story-building exercise where Q is the dungeon master, and anytime an event happens there is a "competition round". whichever person comes up with the most intriguing way to connect a new set of data points to the previously agreed-upon set of conclusions* wins the round, and that set of conclusions becomes incorporated into the entire conclusion set. thus the story inevitably gets increasingly outlandish as time goes on and things keep happening.
but yes it is like the opposite of occams razor. to these folk, the more complicated and outlandish the story that purports to explain a set of data, the more likely they are to accept it. after all, who could invent such a story? it's so outlandish that it has to be true since it actually does seem to explain what it is going on... right?

Yes morrow, thank you for explaining it better than my laziness allowed me to
I learned of Occam's razor 25 years ago and pretty much live by it. So much bullshit comes from people doing the opposite

my sister had it... she rarely gets sick and hat the flu 5 years ago so she has a direct comparison. she had less classic cold symptoms than with the flu, medium fever, but strong joint pains, a very prevalent general fatigue that so far still persists even 5 weeks after it started... it can be a very long and tough ride for some people, even healthy ones. my sister is 41 and has a strong immune system... as i said, she hasn't been sick for 5 years before that. and yes, it was covid. she never expereienced anything like that before and knew immediately that this must be it. she got it from her son who only had regular fever and cough for 1-2 weeks

I'll repost this from the stickied covid thread.
"Genes hold clues to why some people get severely ill"
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-54832563
"Scientists looked at the DNA of patients in more than 200 intensive care units in UK hospitals.
They scanned each person’s genes, which contain the instructions for every biological process - including how to fight a virus.
Their genomes were then compared with the DNA of healthy people to pinpoint any genetic differences, and a number were found - the first in a gene called TYK2".
So maybe you and your family don't have the genes that make you more susceptible to a severe case of the covid's, but unless we scan everyones dna for these markers, which I'm sure would freak the fuck outta the conspiracy theory nutjobs, we are stuck with vaccination as the best way out of this mess.
In the meantime mask up, wash up, and don't touch everything you see and then stick your fingers in every available orifice, like some nasty little germ ridden toddler!

All that describes me perfectly. I almost never get sick and am normally healthy AF
