Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for April 11, 2022

So exactly what is that wand good for?

The Wizard can’t use it on himself.

masks are meant to stop outgoing not incoming

“Gale Force Winds” Watch/Warning.

‘Another’ pandemic? No, the same one.

New Variant “BYTIWO”, bet you thought it was over. So all the shepeople who got jabbed twice and once again for good measure are now the ones getting infected. We know who failed the IQ test.

Pollen so thick it set off security cameras.

Wiz does make a good point sniffle sniffle

Given the warm weather we have, Wiz would be sweating under all that stuff!

Feel sorry for those who have real allergies. When I was young, I took allergy meds for five years; before they gave me an allergy test and didn’t find any.

There still trying that out. How many “subvariants” of that decepticon we have now? I lost count

But. . .but. . .but I can’t smell the flowers. . .or see to pull the weeds. . .

Pollen. The pandemic we all know and love.

Well that matches COVID-19 symptoms. Lock him away in the COVID ward (dungeon).

I think we have better comics in the remarks. Nothing I’d pay for though.

I just read this mornings ‘Shoe’, If you haven’t seen it, here it is https://www.gocomics.com/shoe/2022/04/11 Now, can we all laugh at ourselves?

Spring has sprung, somewhat.

every allergy season (which now seems to run most of the year) I seriously consider buying a hazmat suit.

I just saw an article that claims we’re having another spike, but the numbers aren’t up because no one’s getting tested. Talk about fake news!

We should be hunting down the yachts of Big Pharm ceos too.

Multipurpose protection.

Not just for robbing banks anymore!!

Looks like doctor falsy.

I am right there with you wizard! I am not fond of Spring.

So it is pollen season! Some folks need to cover up.

Or, as I call it, Spring Sneezies.

Sometimes it is hard to tell the difference without a test.

“EVERY source can and will manipulate the data to prove its point.”

Actually, not EVERY source can and will. Many sources have integrity and the desire to save lives. If it can kill a stranger, it can kill a loved one. Winning an argument is less important.

For example, Dr. Fauci suggested a lockdown would slow the spread of disease at the beginning of a pandemic. It did.

A total lockdown was impossible. People don’t tend to keep weeks’ worth of supplies on hand. Reduced contact helped with spread rate though.

Inability to test to KNOW who was and was NOT infected hurt.

“decreed face diapers be worn”

Calling a mask a “face diaper” is probably intended to be an insult, but I remember reading that the introduction of diapers in infants and their equivalent, underwear, in older humans reduced disease transmission and saved millions of lives.

I still wear mine working in a classroom. Not just for COVID at this point!
