Linguistics can and do respond to science, just as the definition of vaccine changed when recombinant vaccines were introduced.


I made no claim as to what linguistics do or don't do. I am merely pointing out the principle that he seems to miss, namely that definitions are a matter of linguistics rather than science. Do you agree with this?

I am sorry that some people are losing loved ones. But I don't think that should be the criterion for determining whether covid is over. To illustrate my point, imagine that there is only one single person, literally only one person in the entire world, who is infected with the covid virus. Are you seriously going to tell me that covid isn't over? I mean, technically, you would be correct, because there is still someone infected. But this is not the sense people are referring to when they ask whether a disease is over or not.


You are 100% not, because your sociopathic posting has already shown your lack of empathy.
By the way, a man in hospital dying of covid IS proof covid is not over to anyone with any semblance of a brain.
Covid is over at zero cases, we have a definition for the word "over" maybe grab a dictionary.

This spring & summer 'numbers' will rise and the fear mongering will begin again.

almost as if it's similar to a seasonal flu.

When the flies kills 8k a day, I wouldn't be surprised if governments start enacting policy to impact it.

No you weren't. You were trying to contradict him by asserting that science has no relavence to the definition, when that is patently false. Don't be so dishonest with your intentions.

yes, the super "pandemic" with an average age of deaths around life expectancy has been dropped like a hot potato in under a week

and some of the most restrictive places like new york etc use this opportunity to scrap some of their bullshit mandates as if nothing happened

needless to say that this will work, because the average person has the attention span of a 5 year old

the scamdemic is over

It was already going away, at least in Western countries, because it's exploding in some asian countries right now

Watch these curbs... But it's "only" Omicron so they are "lucky".


you should really stop discussing anything covid related as you are wrong on 9/10 things you post

Lots of people have carried the virus and were asymptomatic. There are people who have HIV infection but have never had any symptoms.

I love how confidentially wrong some people are lol.

I know. that's what I tried to explain to sausage6k but apparently that's a "nice twist", or "conspiracy theory".
Seeing how that's literally basic and minimum knowledge on covid and he doesn't understand it, I'm saying he should really stop discussing it.
