You know when you're a teenager? You get acne, you cough constantly the whole time, growth spurts, drama, dating, learning to drive, and high school? Man what a crazy time.

I just tried to enroll and you need a prescription first? So I have to wait until I’m sick, find a doctor who will prescribe it and then enroll and then like wait for my card in the mail maybe 3 weeks later and THEN hand it to a pharmacist to see if they accept it? Lmao (e: oh you can download one. well you can try but HOLD ON)

“But the Paxlovid was on display…” “On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.” “That’s the display department.” “With a flashlight.” “Ah, well, the lights had probably gone.” “So had the stairs.” “But look, you found the tool, didn’t you?” “Yes,” said Arthur, “yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.

Already gone? As far as I can tell nobody can say for sure what the cumulative death toll is. We hit 1.3m or so in 2022 (IIRC) and just stopped counting.

From the actual paper linked in that article: https://www.colorado.edu/today/2024/04/09/epidemic-loneliness-how-pandemic-changed-life-aging-adults quote:
Lol no loving poo poo they’re hesitant, the head of the CDC said that people like them dying was “encouraging” and state governments told them to sacrifice themselves for the economy.

Fwiw I just grabbed a box from them, depriving a poor hospitalized pregnant mother from getting appropriate treatment. Maybe it still works if you already had an account.
