The CDC has ZERO credibility at this point.
PrairieFire_withwind@reddit
Missouri was refusing to cooperate with the cdc. In other words, no sharing of trsting data, pcr, nothing. No outside ability to investigate further.
So basically if it was himan to human we have no idea the extent of the problem because missouri is not cooperating.
It all makes no sense to me. It is not as if not sharing data makes it less infectious.

Again states are perfectly capable of handling this on their own no need to involve the feds and have the cover ups like they did with COVID.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
Bro, this IS a cover up
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
No it's not it wasn't even a h2h case there was no reason to get the feds involved.
Flux_State@reddit
If it wasn't h2h, why the cover up?
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
What cover up?
Let's be honest if this was a blue state you wouldn't have an issue here.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
This could be California, arguably the bluest state, and I would still take issue with it. The fact you would even bring this up speaks volumes about where your priorities lie.
The cover up is them refusing to cooperate with the CDC. You’d have to be a simpleton not to realize how tracking the spread from state to state would help us citizens protect ourselves.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
Well California has had cases and is handling them in their own so?
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
Are they, or are you making things up to protect your argument?

Apart-Rent5817@reddit
This link talks about how state and federal officials are working together.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
After the cases were confirmed to be spreading by the state.
Which is how it should be.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
Ok, but where does this fall on your red/blue scale from good to bad? How many other baseless accusations are you going to make to try and prove your point?
Any and all contagious diseases should be reported point blank. Not sure where the differentiation exists in your mind, but my gut instinct is that you’re wrong.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
I'm not the one claiming a state can't handle a single case because of their political leanings.
They were reported.
The states can handle basic contact tracing and don't need the fed to step in for a single case.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
You’re the one who brought politics into this.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
No I pointed out why you guys care so much is because of political beliefs.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
You pointed at your own beliefs.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
Again this happened in other states the states handled it nobody cried.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
Because they shared the important data. I can’t understand why you’re not getting this.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
They didn't until it was important.
They initially handled it themselves then gave the info they found to the fed once they deemed it Worthy.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
So what’s your issue?
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
I don't have one again just pointing out the hysteria about the state handling 1 case and now bringing the feds in until they have too is soley because of political ideologies.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
It’s not, and you’re the only one trying to make it political.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
The Latin kings alone run thousands of streets jails ECT across the world and have more members than every 1% nc group combined let alone Ms 13 or GD or bloods and crips.
MC gangs are mostly small time drug addicts being used by larger gangs to sell drugs to white people.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
Oh I see, you’re just a racist. You could have just said that at the beginning and saved us both the trouble.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
Nothing I said was racist you clearly have no argument here wanna deny reality and when that doesn't work hurl random insults in the hopes you can win that way.
Apart-Rent5817@reddit
Bro wtf do the Latin kings have to do with disease? Or ms13 or the bloods and the crips? I’m hurling random insults eh? Seems like you’re just spewing bullshit.
Flux_State@reddit
First of all, my problem is with the behavior and not where it's happening or who's doing it.
Second of all, I'm a Leftist; I detest Democrats/Liberals nearly as much as detest their little Republican buddies.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
Yet your post history is you sucking Harris cock lol.
It's sad you are so ashamed of what you're you have to lie about it.
Flux_State@reddit
I'm telling you, sucking BBC is better than letting Trumps tiny mushroom head fuck you in the ass.
Man, it's super simple. I'm on the Left. There's no major presidential candidate on the Left this year. There's the Near Right candidate and the Far Right Candidate. Near Right is closer to the Left than Far Right.
On top of that, Trump is a Traitor to his nation who wants to collapse what remains of the Republic into a dictatorship and ultimately monarchy. Harris is none of those things. Another thing that Harris is not is a permanently baffled dementia patient like the Donald.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
Do you even hear yourself lol?
The fact you tried denying your own beleifs proves you're ashamed of them why be that guy? Don't you have any self respect?
Flux_State@reddit
Damn, settle down bootlicker. I haven't denied any beliefs.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
Hahahah yah I'm the boot licker.
SurfSandFish@reddit
How does less data transparency prevent a cover-up? That's how you create a cover-up, not prevent one.
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
You remember covid right? You remember the fed claiming it wasn't h2h even though for months they knew it was and attacking anyone who said otherwise right?
SurfSandFish@reddit
So your solution to preventing something like that from happening again is hiding the data and having 51 siloed response efforts between the states and the feds?
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
No it's allowing the states to handle a single case which they're perfectly able to do because they don't have a motive to cover it up.
SurfSandFish@reddit
What motive does the federal government have for a cover-up that the state governments do not?
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
Causing election panic to push through the candidate they want.
This happened already with covid states don't have that power.
DankesObama@reddit
🤡
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
Wasn't even h2h case you guys gotta stop demanding the fed handle everything when states are perfectly capable.
DankesObama@reddit
🥱🤡
Flat_Boysenberry1669@reddit
You can keep hurling insults trying to defend the fed but just remember you're a bootlicker not everyone else.
DankesObama@reddit
AHAHAHAHAHA
AspiringIdealist@reddit
lol, lmao even.
PrestigiousConcern69@reddit
One could even go so far as to rofl.
Flux_State@reddit
Damn, reminds me of how China acted right before Covid "NOTHING TO SEE, HERE!"
DrippingWithRabies@reddit
This is the truth. It's not the CDC trying to hide things, it's the state of Missouri refusing to practice good public health.
MrSnarf26@reddit
Public health and betterment is woke now in 2024
soloChristoGlorium@reddit
As a Missourian this honestly fits perfectly well with this administration. I'm not surprised at all.
A_Toxic_User@reddit
Because good public health is woke and part of the communist plandemic
NewsteadMtnMama@reddit
And we are not surprised.
Preference-Inner@reddit
Seems like they need to investigate into the corrupt officials of Missouri

Hell yeah nature let's gooo :D Shed your Homosapien infection and start the healing.

In MO there’s something extremely wicked going around currently: SEVERE upper respiratory congestion, vomiting/ diarrhea, very low grade fever, lethargy, extreme shortness of breath, exhaustion, comes on with a few sneezes and a dry non productive cough, initially sneezing and dry cough last a week. Then the rest hits, with vengeance. Makes you feel like death would be a welcome change.. This wasn’t covid. Started around the beginning of the new school year (southern KC metro area) 14-21 day incubation period I believe. This is no “cold”, folks.
IF you come down with this; lean FORWARD while propping yourself up with a giant pillow (I used a giant stuffed monkey); this will allow your body to take short shallow breaths and after 5 days, helps with productive coughing. We utilized self & HH quarantining, Benadryl, back & body aspirin, hydration (super important), that giant stuffed monkey and sleep (IF you’re able to breathe well enough to sleep). Don’t over exert yourself! Walking becomes an absolute chore due to the shortness of breath.. Even our two cats came down with sneezing fits. Dog not affected.
I am just passing along my experience and information. We aren’t around livestock whatsoever. Two of the wage earners in my HH are hi rise widow cleaners (constant exposure to bird feces of most all types). We’re typically healthy. I personally have never been so sick in my 42 years. Please do not rip me to shreds! This is my attempt at being helpful.
DorothysMom@reddit
No ripping to shreds here. I believe you had all the symptoms you've said and that whatever you've had was awful. I also appreciate your tips for helping with these symptoms; I hope you're feeling better!
An alternative reason why you may have had such a horrible time is that it does appear covid can reactivate viruses that have been dormant within you, and that prior covid infections may be making subsequent flu infections/symptoms worse.
Anecdotally, the home covid tests do not seem to be very effective for everyone. I know some people who seem to get consistent results pretty early, like my father and parnter, and some people, like myself and my mother, who seem to either never test positive or test positive very late, despite living in the same house as someone who tested positive, and being symptomatic.

My partner finally brought Covid home to me after 4 and 1/2 years of just being careful and taking precautions. He went on vacation with his family during the summer surge, none of whom took any precautions, and was surrounded by an island full of unmasked people in close contact. He didn't tell me until he'd been home a couple days when he woke up with a sore throat one morning and tested positive. By then it was too late for me. I had similar symptoms, not as bad, I never tested positive but I was definitely sick. Then when he tested negative he immediately left on another vacation with his kid who had also just got over Covid. He relapsed, gave it back to me and I didn't even bother testing. I lost my sense of taste and smell, that was proof enough.
FictitiousAuthor@reddit
After my first bout of covid I got shingles... At age 31. My theory was that covid had beaten my immune system down so badly that the chicken pox I had as a kid reactivated outside of the normal age range and bam shingles.
Dense_Ad1118@reddit
Same.
gingersusue@reddit
Oh wow, that is so creepy! I have noticed that I get flare ups of past infections that I thought were long over with. It's really been freaking me out. I also started getting terrible diverticulitis flare ups for the first time ever. I have honestly been wondering if I have some kind of auto immune disease.
Inner-Confidence99@reddit
We got Covid when it first started talking about outbreak in Washington nursing home. We were in AZ and we were there about 4 days and started feeling achy, then got fever, then just an awful cough that felt like it ripped your chest open and got hard to breathe, then got vomiting and diarrhea. We were sick for 2 weeks. I’ve had asthma for 40 years and COPD for 20 and I’ve had bronchitis and every pneumonia out there none felt like this awful. Due to having lung problems I had steroids , inhaler, and nebulizer machine. That is what kept us from dying. We had omicron Novemberand it was like a bad cold. But we have more fatigue, breathing problems, no energy, it’s awful. Our Dr said it’s long covid. We still mask up every where. It’s made a difference. Also, has anyone else noticed that Staph infections are increasing?
gingersusue@reddit
That sounds horrible, I hope y'all are feeling better. IDK about staph infections but I hear about a lot more people getting sepsis lately.
Wild-Lengthiness2695@reddit
How do you know it wasn’t Covid ? Short of a lab pcr test there’s no reliable way to know that , if 3 people in one small area have something new then you are either ground zero or there’d be cases everywhere around you.
erela_midori@reddit
I took a post office home test that was expired, and two that were not expired, all negative. That is why I stated not covid. I am also not a doctor, therefore you will /could surmise it was covid; however, it was not (the “it was not” sentiment is purely subjective as that’s just my own intuition). The other two folks in my HH did not test at all. This respiratory issue was present in my town for the two weeks prior to school starting this year.
It is not just the 3 people in my HH. My HS student came home with it, the kids next door had it prior to us. Whatever it is, we’re not the first.
Wild-Lengthiness2695@reddit
Fair enough , the odds says it’s Covid or another respiratory virus. People and especially kids mix more during school holidays so stuff spreads more , add in the warm weather as well…..
JimblesRombo@reddit
"or another respiratory virus" is doing a lot of work there
ElstonGunn321@reddit
No it’s not. People got sick before 2020 and they continue to get sick
WanderingGrizzlyburr@reddit
What is an HH?
erela_midori@reddit

Exterminator2022@reddit
Sounds like covid to me. Are your masking at all times? If no then yes it is covid.
fruderduck@reddit
This is supposed to be lethal to cats.
soloChristoGlorium@reddit
This all sounds horrible and selfishly I hope neither me nor my family have to deal with this.
"Missouri.... South KC Metro area...."
Hey... That's where I live! (Uh oh)
No_Independent_6800@reddit
Oh please. You lived right? People get so hysterical and dramatic over nothing. You had a bad flu, not ebola.
DreamSoarer@reddit
This sounds like my past two weeks. Went to my dr yesterday and covid, flu, strep, all came back negative. No idea what I have other than respiratory infection and what feels like horrible mono, but is not.
I was given a steroid shot, antibiotic shot, and oral antibiotics. Sleep, rest, hydration, nebulizer, fever and pain reduction meds, decongestants, and small snacks when my stomach allows is all I can do. I’m in the high plains of TX. 🙏🦋
Barbosa003@reddit
With all those meds, you’re in high plains anywhere!
DreamSoarer@reddit
😂😂😂
BigJSunshine@reddit
Yup. We all pretending we better than Wuhan
LatrodectusGeometric@reddit
See my prior post on this.
ElstonGunn321@reddit
Couldn’t they have gotten sick from the same source? This doesn’t necessarily imply human to human transmission.
LatrodectusGeometric@reddit
In fact that is most likely because they both became sick on the same day. This does not indicate person to person transmission.
WinIll755@reddit
Ahh, there's that feeling like ice in my stomach again

Bird flu isn’t going to kill most people so relax.

In Atlanta metro area everyone I work with has either called in sick this last week or said they feel awful but have stuff they need to finish (but wfh). I’m also sick. But it’s not COVID
