COVID means fear, control, and lockdowns because we’ve allowed people to make it mean fear, control, and lockdowns.
D.C. Health is giving out “Home COVID-19 Testing Kits” at libraries across the capital city.
At the majority of these sites, you’ll be handed two plastic, red, white, and blue envelopes per person. “Muriel Bowser, Mayor,” they read at the bottom. “Testyourselfdc.com.”
“Isn’t that wonderful!” you might be thinking, as you tear open the seal. “I want to be sure these winter sniffles aren’t COVID before I see my mother, or visit grandpa, or go away with some friends.”

Have local health care “experts” done anything to gain my trust? Or have they done everything they possibly can to betray it?
The COVID Construct
By and large, Omicron is the sniffles. A cold; maybe some aches, and the sniffles. If you live on the East Coast, you might already know more than a dozen people with Omicron and aside from an occasional fever, every one of them is...
