This is the biggest thing people don't get - this is not the flu and surviving it or having mild symptoms does not mean that you didn't signed up a chornic CVD or metabolic disease based on the early data that the virus causes a permanent myocardic injury, lung scaring, and God knows what else. We'll be studying the damage for the decades to come! I think many people forget that even the "benign" HPV causes different types of cancer, and we recently found it. So, a new virus means being extra careful, but how can you explain this to people who strongly believe that Bill Gates wants to chip them thru vaccines and that 5G kills birds and people?

- WheelsAtLarge 6y agoIt does not change the primary narrative. COVID is dangerous and highly contagious so we need to be careful and not treat it lightly.
- tinus_hn 6y agoMany things are dangerous. Being careful means evaluating risks, not hysterically avoiding all risks at any cost. Smoking costs more lives than COVID-19 and it is much easier to save these lives. Yet it’s acceptable to do very little. But somehow COVID-19 warrants endless lockdowns.
