Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I was assaulted by a family member for not giving “IV Ivermectin” to someone with COVID who I had just crash intubated (honestly thought they were going to code, but somehow didn’t) back during the Delta wave.

My view of humanity has gotten pretty pessimistic since COVID. If I had the guts I’d honestly love to go create an insulated community of people who actually think about stuff and want to help each other.

This would be funny if it wasn’t so fucking true.

Measles, that old-timey disease we didn't really think about as kids because of vaccinations. Welp, that's coming back. Thanks to fucking idiots.

It's coming back thanks to those vaccine mandates that were brought in.

You don't put people at ease about a new vaccine by saying "you must have it otherwise you can't participate in society". That has the opposite effect and makes people even more reluctant and sceptical. It also gives anti-vaxxers more ammo for their nonsense that they can spread online.

All that combined has led to a big increase in vaccine hesitancy and scepticism, and the worst thing is that it's now harming kids as a result.

I AGREE! Even though before Covid we also couldn't participate in things like travel or schooling or sometimes even workout with the Right Vaccine!
