At the time of this writing, the rest of the world and I have been going through a pandemic caused by a virus known as COVID19 which causes flu like symptoms in humans and has a tendancy to exacerbate pre-existing health conditions in sick and elderly individuals. There is a lot of debate about where it came from and why it happened when it did, which I will get into, and the vaccines that have been made and almost forced upon the public to take. These are new, highly untested vaccines especially in regards to long term side effects and many people are against them, but they are in the minority and labled as "anti vaxxers" and "conspiracy theorists." The vaccines have failed to show much efficacy, as there are now 3 booster shots required after the original shot and people who are fully vaccinated are still getting sick with COVID and others who are not vaccinated and have not been vaccinated since this all began in the United States around March 2020. Some say this is a retaliation by the "left" to sabotage Donald Trumps ability to get re-elected after he destroyed and ruined all the democrats plans and hopes for the future. And his re-election was imminent late in 2019, close to the election of 2020, the economy booming and unemployment at an all time low, stock market doing very well and inflation down dramatically compared to how it is now under the Biden administration and the previous administration, when it comes to food or gas, taxes, tolls, and prices everywhere. It has just been a disaster of almost 2 years now since March 2020 when COVID hit the US big and everyone had to start wearing masks and "social distancing" and being under constant confusion, ignorance and fear of something we had no control over and that could possibly be life threatening on a large scale. Thankfully it seems it is not turning out to be that way since the last "variant" or strain seems weaker and much more like a regular flu and not lethal (not that COVID is lethal to healthy adults, mainly the sick and elderly or people with underlying medical conditions) but the fear is still being propogated by the mainstream media and they seem to be losing more credibility by the day, as media and news/journalism is changing and going in a new direction as the old format of mainstream cable news media is collapsing and becoming disliked by a majority of the people who pay attention to politics and current events.
