I know I am in the minority on this forum, but I just don't see the panic about this virus. Yes it is contagious, yes, people can die from it. That said, your chances of dying (in the general population) if you actually beat the odds and get it in the first place is very small.
In the past month, I have travel to Massachusetts to visit friends and family. I have traveled to Ohio for my son's wedding and interacted with a large number of people I didn't know.
Every Friday night, I have gone out and officiated a football game and gone out afterwards to a restaurant to have dinner and drinks with my crew mates.
I guess I could be a super spreader, except in spite of not taking a lot of precautions I haven't contracted it. From the fear espouse by so many (including a number on this forum) I should have at least got Covid by now.
I will say what I have said countless time to people. If you have a co-morbidity, isolate yourself until this pandemic passes, if you don't live your life because you are at little risk. Now I can hear it now, what if you get it and spread it to someone else who dies. I will repeat, what was the person with a co-morbidity doing being out and about, because the great odds are that if a person died with Covid, they are someone with a co-morbidity.
But that makes me a heartless jerk.
