I sincerely doubt I called anyone uneducated. I may have distinguished between those who graduated from high school, college, and grad school. That distinction is often made in polls and sociological studies. It doesn't imply a judgement, only a reality.

@KarenQVC

I was speaking of the OP prettychis, to whom I responded, quoting her post. This poster stated that those with a particular view were uneducated, and listening to idiots.

Another poster, kkj, jumped in to post, yet again, how much she hates posting about masks.

Best to you.

@Drythe Thank you. It just didn't sound like a word I would generally use. But then a person can be uneducated in a particular area--as--I'm uneducated in nail polish--and I am.

Now my state MI is asking for extra vaccines because we are so high with B117. It is so dangerous because so many young people end up in the hospital.

@KKJ You respond to all Covid threads. Does that mean you are "freaked out" by them? I doubt it. I am curious about your motivation. What draws you in about them? Something must be interesting you very much.

I'm interested because my life has been turned upside down by Covid. Just like everyone else's has. I haven't been able to travel to see family. My usual fun pursuits have been curtailed and I know people who were put out of work by the consequences of the virus. So I am extremely motivated to pay attention to it and want everything possible done to halt the virus.

What about the Covid topic interests you so intensely?

As I've said in many posts before, it's the constant repetitive scolding and lecturing of "why aren't people wearing masks, I went to town and saw people not wearing masks, why don't they wear masks, they are selfish..." and as others have said the repetitive stuff that's been posted over and over on these boards. Also, most of these virus threads become so argumentative because people will post numbers and of course others will post dif. numbers and more arguing ensues. Thye just become so contentious.and repetitive. And yes, before you and others say it, I should just bypass all of them.

Well, many of the arguments on those threads involve you and me...

The latest from MI is that we are having concerning increases in covid in the 0-10 and 11-19 age groups. Also, hospitalizations of that dangerous syndrome kids can get from it. This is very bad news.
