Long story short: I changed my opinion as the evidence came out.
I am human. Sue me. This post was in April 2020. There was a lot of unknowns back then.
With all due respect, you don't know my background. I've been extremely sick with respitatory diseases since 2017 and have had a predisposition towards severe asthma since infancy.
Yes I had an episode which may have been covid in the spring of 2020, but I felt like I could have died several times in the years prior. From respiratory distress. I have been struggling severely in that regard and my case is extreme.
I got caught up in the panic a little when I got sick in March-April 2020, all I'd seen was the crazy china situation and the media frenzy of March 2020. Since then, my understanding of the evidence has informed the position I currently have now.
If I "downplay" covid, it's because of my firm belief that it is completely overblown and is been used as justification for authoritarian measures which are destroying the fabric of our societies.
A lot of people are getting sick and even dying, but I don't believe it's necessarily caused by a novel coronavirus.
