Two thousand people die every day of COVID now in the US. Straight to streaming is much safer. People can deal.

  I don't think a lot of 80 year olds are going to see Pixar movies at the cinema.

    But they might be in close contact with someone who did go to the cinema and contracted the virus.

    The big jump is now at age 50.[1] [1] https://www.statista.com/statistics/1191568/reported-deaths-from-covid-by-age-us/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/1191568/reported-deaths-...

      Similar to UK numbers. Now that I know there's possibly an every improving chance that I'm not going to killed from this Pandemic, now maybe we can look closer at long Covid, which isn't reflected in those numbers. Note: 2nd jab nearly 3 months ago in a country running seriously behind. Probably get boosted soon if the health centers are giving us the thumbs up for it. ETA: So, I'm still avoiding people. ;)

        "Long COVID" isn't really understood yet. There's some evidence for it being caused by tiny blood clots. That's still a maybe. As understanding improves, so will treatment. There are things that can be done about tiny blood clots.
