Yes, and you can die from a pillow fight if you have COPD, diabetes, obesity, etc.

This crap is getting old.

Covid symptoms are now more mild and follow a pattern, doctors say (nbcnews.com)


Doctors say they're finding it increasingly difficult to distinguish Covid from allergies or the common cold, even as hospitalizations tick up.

The illness' past hallmarks, such as a dry cough or the loss of sense of taste or smell, have become less common. Instead, doctors are observing milder disease, mostly concentrated in the upper respiratory tract.

"It isn’t the same typical symptoms that we were seeing before. It’s a lot of congestion, sometimes sneezing, usually a mild sore throat," said Dr. Erick Eiting, vice chair of operations for emergency medicine at Mount Sinai Downtown in New York City.


The sore throat usually arrives first, he said, then congestion.

I have been paying little attention to COVID for over a year now.  I like to be informed if it appears cases are ticking up, but that's about it.  It has had ner zero impact on our lives.

I did my annual screening last week and they had the flu shot, which I got.  Didn't even offer me the COVID shot and I didn't ask about it.
Should have inquired about Tito's why not? It's the same shyt your wash your hands with just taken differently

My approach is to try and stay a bit informed, but not worried.  As we do some international travel, I need to keep up with any regs where we're headed, or on the plane or ship.  I still see the occasional person in the park wearing a mask, 30+ feet from anyone else.  There is an elderly couple in the building who usually is masked on the elevator, fine with me.  I ask them if it's OK if I join them and then turn my head away.

Saw a person the other day, driving alone in a convertible, with a mask on.  I think some folks just really like the mask.  Maybe they have ugly mouths?

I think for some it's a political statement.  And vice versa.

I did see a noticeable uptick in mask-wearing in the recent 2 months where we've had a little bit of a mini-wave of cases. 

Still, even here in California, it's a tiny minority.

Saw lots of masks at ORD this last trip. I'd say 1 in 5 were masked on the plane ride home.

On planes these days, it's probably a good idea just to wear full SCBA gear.
