Yes, It’s Still Really Worth Avoiding COVID—Even If You’ve Already Had It a Few Times
Yes, It’s Still Really Worth Avoiding COVID—Even If You’ve Already Had It a Few Times
This virus behaves differently in our bodies than cold and flu—and can do major long-term damage.
You're viewing a single thread.
idk, I’m personally not worried about it and never really have been. Still isolated a few times and always wore a mask, but only for other people.
Vaccines are out, it’s as under control as it’s realistically gonna be, not worth worrying about for me personally.
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.
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.
Ah, yes, because if you do a modicum of prevention, like wearing a mask, you're obviously missing life and there's definitely no way to keep up with the world unless you just completely give up on safety. No in-between, snort covid or become a social shut-in.

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.
Good thing I didn't say "don't bother at all". I never said don't get vaccination or don't wear a mask if you're in public transport. I even said stay at home when feeling sick to not infect others. I personally don't use public transport much anymore and probably won't carry a mask for the rare occasions, but that's a personal thing. However the automatic bite reflexes, of assuming I propagate a black and white thinking, makes me believe you're American. It's often in online discussions, especially with Americans, that they only see pro or against. It's exhausting.
Also you brushed of the other things I said too. Maybe I should've added a "third" option and it's people who don't bother with covid at all, but I left it out for discussion sake. All I read all day on social media is the still existing constant fear of covid, and yeah, I rightfully so laugh about this. It's like fearing cancer. You take reasonable preparations but you gain nothing by changing your way of living by an invisible virus you could catch any day. How is this so hard to understand?
I am indeed American. However, the reason I assumed you propagate black and white thinking is you constantly refer to the extreme:
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.
But while you fear and hide, the world is moving on without you.

You act like anyone who recommends taking precautions is a crazy germaphobe. If you want to sound reasonable, use reasonable language.
