I wonder why we don't see these cavalier attitudes in the other current threads about people losing their loved ones to covid. Or in response to doctors like Marcus who post abour seeing terrible outcomes for their covid patients. Y'all might as well be saying directly to them, "well it was their choice, get over it."
It's like y'all just wanna find a place to flex in front of each other for blue stars. Everyone knows the statistics, you don't have to keep repeating them. And you certainly don't have to act like this disease is "nothing" when the stories of it being terrible for some are right here in front of you.
Not to mention that 50% of asymptomatic COVID patients have long-term lung, heart, or brain damage. The cardiac changes are like decades of aging.
How this affects someone in 10, 20, 30 years is unknown.
Getting herd immunity's worth of vax reduces the risk of variants being generated that aren't protected by the vaccines...although there's a decent chance booster shots can stay ahead. The newer variants are more contagious, virulent, and affecting younger people.
Roll the dice... w/e I got mine months ago.
