It's really only karma if you rail against the vax, push fake information, twist facts about the vaccine, and convince otherwise gullible people who can't do their own research that the vaccine is dangerous. Then, if you get COVID and die, it's probably "karma" (which I don't believe in) because you've most likely harmed way more people than yourself.

Get rid of the mandate and you can flap your gums all you want about twisting this or that. Making it required gives your side teeth and our side no choice. See the problem?

I had a relative -- a well-educated and engaging man. He was a strict (ovo-lacto, non-Vegan) vegetarian, took a truckload of supplements every day. He was to live to the age of a few days short of 92, but developed diverticulitis, and ended up living on vtiamin pills and mashed root vegetables.

Only he could say if it was worth the effort.

New Hampshire: A COVID surge fueled by the unvaccinated is overwhelming this New Hampshire hospital
Indiana: Yes, most patients hospitalized because of COVID-19 are unvaccinated
North Carolina: 100% of Duke Health patients in ICU or on life-saving treatment are unvaccinated, hospital cases rising
England: Covid patients in ICU now almost all unvaccinated, says Oxford scientist
Chicago: Chicago Hospitals Struggle With Staffing, Beds As Omicron Surge Hits, With Majority Of Cases Among Unvaccinated
Connecticut: YNHH hospitalized COVID-19 patients double, 90 percent unvaccinated
Indiana again: Experts: “People who are unvaccinated are 11 times more likely to die from COVID than those who are vaccinated”
From that last article:
Quote:
As of Tuesday December 21, there are currently 70 COVID-19 inpatients at Eskenazi hospitals. Of those admitted, roughly 25-30 patients are in the ICU on ventilators and roughly 95% are unvaccinated.
But go ahead and continue believing conspiracy theories if it makes you happy. Enjoy.

You don't get COVID. You take a very sensitive that is positive if you have a bit of a runny nose, and that is all. COVID is just a blanket term for a wide variety of respiratory illnesses and not a unique illness.

No, It's me getting a disease. I've had some over the years. I understand that it is part of life. In this case, the danger is miniscule in comparison to other much more deadly diseases that I am much more likely to get. I make mountains out of mountains, not out of molehills.

You do realize that those ailments happen to thin people, also. You also know that there are overweight people who don't have serious health woes.
