Sick of COVID?
Most bloggers on the board are understandably sick of COVID
restrictions.
Two bad things can happen if you are infected
1 Death
80% of cases (270,000 in USA) are people 65+
17% of cases (55,000 in USA) are 45 to 64
3% of cases (10,000 in USA are aged 44 or less
2 Permanent physical damage to heart, lungs, kidneys
liver, circulatory system (blood pressure etc.)
This factor is much more evenly spread over the ages.
I do not have any reliable data.
*** 400,000 Americans will have died by inaugeration day.
*** 500,000 Americans will have died before All Fools Day
*** 600,000 American will have died by the Fall
If anything, the above numbers might be lowball
We should all be;
1 fed up with restrictions
2. realistic about implications about getting infected.
The new variation seems to be 50% to 70% more transmissable.

Go hide in your basement and watch the wall, WITH YOUR mask on, matty. For everyone else life goes on. We learn to accept risk and not live a quality of life that SUCKS

On the plus side my 83 year old dad isnt even showing any symptoms of Covid at all... My step mom is much better and apparently going back to work in a couple days. She has to isolate for 14 days after her first symptoms, and that is over tomorrow..

This sums up my point mat, you say you are sick of covid but it's all your posts, you are literally consumed with it. Go to LCBO and relax.
