    Yeah, it’s part of life now. Like cancer, if it happens, it happens. If I’m sick, I try to isolate and recover.

    You could however keep worrying for the rest of your life and feel miserable, spend time for all sorts of preparations, become germophobic, restrict your life decisions and become bitter.

    Some people prefer the later. Quite a lot actually.

      There’s a very large gap between “Don’t bother trying to avoid it” and “live in perpetual terror of getting it.” It’s not a binary thing.

      I’m pretty sure that if you knew you would get cancer from someone else who has it at a very high probability of transmission you would avoid it at all times.

      This is a very poor comparison. At best it dimishes how bad cancer is and at worst you’re also giving terrible advice to people who care about not having their life destroyed by covid.

        I don’t deminish how bad cancer is, never said that. I also don’t give terrible advice, because life is to live and not to worry. Stop with your twisting and go back into hiding from covid. That’s my advice to you.

        I bet everyone cares to not get their life destroyed, duh. But while you fear and hide, the world is moving on without you. You chose the second option Good luck.

        It was wrong to comment here, of course a covid related community will be full of people who wear masks under a shower.
