Four years ago around this time I was putting on disposable kitchen gloves to ride a citibike over a bridge to get to my girlfriend’s house because we didn’t know if it was a contact virus and riding by box trucks that I later learned were filled with dead bodies. So I’m gonna go with yes.
I mean, maybe there's a bit of a survivor bias going on here. abcnews.go.com/Health/1500-... (Also, I'm in a risk group; little has changed for me except getting weird looks from people with my respirator, since everyone else has decided to ignore the still-ongoing pandemic.)
Despite availability of COVID vaccines and treatments, an average of 1,500 Americans are dying from the virus every week. Experts explain why this might be happening.
Flip side: A lot of Americans owe their inheritances to Trump.
I was unemployed 4 years ago, now I’m full time again! So YEAH!
We adopted trump's "let er rip" strategy of Covid denial. Somehow, Biden managed to be worse on covid policy.
such a strange bit for him to be hammering on when it was widely popular to call 2020 "the year from hell" IN 2020. everyone was openly acknowledging the supreme shittiness of the year as it was happening.
How on earth are they still using this line after March 13.
Luckily it was gone by Easter though and it's not like it killed over a million people!
Remember, during the height of the pandemic local tattoo artists, car shops and even drug dealers donated their masks and gloves and aprons to hospitals while the wealthy set up holding companies to provide fake PPE that never arrived.
Since Biden started: As a homeowner, we sold our old condo and bought a new single family home -- unthinkable for us even pre-pandemic. As a public servant, my loans were forgiven this year thanks to the PSLF changes. The pandemic isn't over but its severity is much diminished. So, another yes!
I can think of about one highly relevant example of a guy who definitely was better off four years ago than he is now.
