Measles outbreaks are growing along the Utah-Arizona border and in South Carolina where hundreds are in quarantine.

There's no way these people are actually quarantining.

I can imagine.

Reporter on zoom: "You and your wife have said you've kept in quarantine."

"Yeah."

Reporter: "Here's a social media photo selfie of you and your wife at Walmart - yesterday."

"Yeah."

Reporter: "So in fact - both of you broke quarantine."

"Yeah, no. We needed diapers. And she always complains I buy the wrong ones."

"He always buys the wrong ones. He drives - I shop."

These people were and are going to continue coughing into each others' mouths during packed indoor holiday gatherings.

Agree, or at best "quarantining" like COVID "lock down" where they still go to the store or visit someone's house or pop down to a bar or cafe real quick, and still view it as the most egregious restriction of individual freedom in their lifetime.

Quarantine but the disease magically doesn’t spread among friends or when you really need a haircut

I remember people being serious about not being able to get their hair cut as something that needed to be weighed against the utility of public health measures. Or a person suggesting to me that because we have 40,000 automobile deaths a year we should accept that many COVID deaths. No! That death toll indicates a sick society that has accepted needless car deaths, not that that is a baseline number of acceptable fatalities. Then the COVID death toll that first year was probably 10x that number. I don't mean to get too serious here, there is just this really weird divide between I feel between people who integrate their continued experiences over time and people who are like, yeah no those things I forcefully and sincerely advocated for 3-4 years ago don't mean anything blob-no-thoughts

Plague times create vaxxed people. Vaxxed people create healthy times. Healthy times create unvaxxed chuds. And unvaxxed chuds create plague times.

Woah woah woah, quarantine? Uhh, did this country suddenly become communist Russia or something? I thought this was AMERICA, where a man can be free to get any infectious disease he wants and heal himself by sheer force of will and that pure AMERICAN spirit

I can imagine people like Joe Rogan helping out too.

Look, I'm not a scientist - okay? We gotta look at this thing from every angle. Some people like vaccines but other people don't like 'em and won't take 'em. So how 'bout those folks? Could the answer be Ivermectin? Our guest today is Ned Nurgle who runs HorsePasteMagicPaste.com
