Duh.....
The contradictory messages and a bit of empirical analyses right at the beginning told any sensible person that right off. Death rate of .5% ain't too scary - unless it is you or yours....
The only changes to my lifestyle was adding a few over-the-counter stuff to my daily intake- zinc, Vit B -E, and the like. Not been taking the "wonder drugs" that some of you think H and I are. I don't know- they may be- I'm not convinced either way. Anecdotes abound... Might if I come down with the Kung Flu.
And I do social convention stuff - masks when required for entry (not otherwise) , and yeah, I've been vaxxed and boostered - more for convenience than any thing else, nor, conversely, do I fear that it may be deleterious to future health. Not proven either way - and considering the controlled media and money involved, we may never know.
I did take my first flu shot ever, along with a bunch of other stuff before going to Africa. Still have 10 days of after trip malaria pills to take.
So color me lab rat.....
