Is it though? Or is it some people trying to moralize catching a highly infectious respiratory virus? I know plenty of people who “took this serious” and did all the double masks, washing mail and quarantining groceries and they still caught covid.
Until I see actual research done when people have a level head that suggests “not taking it seriously” actually changed things… it’s all just wild conjecture.
- kingkawn 5y agoYes, this is the nature of probability. We know how to lower the probability of infection. Even someone doing everything right can get it, but are less likely to. The inability to grasp this type of thinking is why America is so unique in its staggering death toll.
