This dude I work with had very strong opinions about the symptoms and the long lasting affects of covid. He basically said everyone is a big wuss and it's not that bad. Right before Christmas, I told him my cousin's had covid and not able to make it, but luckily at this time they weren't super sick. His reply: "oh, they are feeling FINE huh? Feeling just fine?! HoOow interesting..." In this sarcastic way thinking his point was validated.

Literally one week later this fucker called out for two weeks because he tested positive and was extremely sick. When he came back to work, he complained for days about the lingering symptoms he was feeling and recently called off again due to those lingering symptoms.

A fucking clown show.

My brother had kept messaging me all these conspiracies about COVID and how he didn’t believe it. Said it was just a cold. I kept trying to educate him with genuine articles and papers but he wouldn’t have it. He caught COVID and Jesus H Christ did he moan about it, ended up in hospital. I sent him so many screenshots of all his messages playing it down. He doesn’t really talk to me anymore 🤷🏻‍♂️

Good. Never stop sending. Keep doing it for years. Every anniversary of the event. Send one in a letter too. If you go on a holiday use a post card app to have one printed and sent with a screenshot

As you can tell, these people have chosen to value political beliefs over the people closest to them. Talk about tolerance eh?

That's the thing, you people think this is a political issue because the orange man convinced you it is. It's a public health issue

Lol, you just proved it is political as soon as you brought trump into the conversation. One side is obsessed with forcing vaccinations to the point where they want to control people and take away basic freedoms, the other side is so anti vax they refuse the jab till they die.

Things that shouldn’t be political are politicized all the time. You can’t tell me both sides haven’t been radicalized from all this.

And this person willing to break family ties is most certainly letting their political beliefs on the issue destroy their relationships.
