It sounds like Trump is now beginning to publicly cast some doubt on the vaccines. He's starting cautiously, by questioning the booster shots, but I suspect (hope) that he will be slowly ramping up the questioning and criticism going forward, from here on out.
Excellent point, BIF.....I've been saying this for years. There is such a thing as being too clean. We all have our own natural biome, a whole ecosystem of bacteria that fights off the "baddie" germs that come our way. When I was a kid, we got dirty on the regular, and aside from seasonal crud, we were hardly ever sick (at least, I hardly ever was :)
Our good germs are our very own personal army, and why in the world would we commit mass (small-scale) genocide upon the very system that's our first line of defense?? I'm not going to go so far as licking doorknobs, (that made me kek, fren!) but I'm also not diving for the hand sanitizer and wipey-wipes before I touch the cart at the grocery store. My little soldiers need to be kept in peak fighting condition, and a small dose of germs on a regular basis does just that!
Yeah, idiots don't seem to remember the message of War of the Worlds. The Martians came from such a sterile environment that a common cold wiped them all out. Their immune systems were crap.
I will admit I only wiped my groceries down the first two weeks and then gave up. Took longer for hand washing constantly to go back to normal but that was a personal journey with God. He said I wouldn’t get covid but it was really hard to believe that. Still nothing despite being around people who had it.
Right now I only reserve soap for dirty occasions and I react to normal soap so it’s hard to want to use it anyway. It’s mostly just the anti bacterial soap but it’s hard to tell.
I did the grocery item wipe-down thing once.....and felt so stupid doing it the entire time. Never again. My philosophy: Get right in spirit (whatever that means for you), wash your hands occasionally (holy crap, I think TPTB want us all to develop OCD with the constant hand-washing) eat clean, sleep well (as well as you can these days) and fortify your immune system with good vitamins.
Yes, doing something neurotically will help program you to be neurotic- your brain internalizes the process.
