 After the booster. Wife and I got sick with the exact symptoms that everyone was calling “omicron”. Found out the government would give me a free PCR test if I scanned my face for them. Realized that a positive test would change absolutely nothing about what would happen to me, I’d just be adding to the statistics, and the digital surveillance apparatus. Started asking questions of the doctors in the family. Got called an anti-vaxxer (me, who had gotten 3 fucking shots). Quit the family text thread. Never looked back.
