    LOL ok buddy - how stupid.
    Yes, this is not hard to follow, you can't be this dense.

    His issue is his family doing those things and lying about them to his parents and spending times with his parents.

    Please try and keep up.

    I have no idea what this means or what you are trying to imply.

    We have an (essentially) 100% effective vaccine in record time. What science has done here is really pretty amazing.
    covid IS having its way with us - for real?

    How many millions upon millions have been careful and contracted it? Probably MOST of them.

    You play with the hands of fate every day you wake up, and mostly, at a higher risk of dying than you would from covid - look it up. It blatantly blows my mind how utterly uneducated and fearful people are about their risks with covid when compared to everyday risks they have no problem taking.

People have to decide what risk they are willing to take for themselves. And as long as someone who is less risky who you want to spend time with knows what risks you are taking and is ok with them as well then spend time with whoever you like.
    So we all take risk analyses before we're allowed to interact? Huh?

    Sounds good in writing, but it's simply not practical to do that with every interaction.

    Don't worry about COVID because you might die in a car accident? Is this what you are going with? Really?

    Modern medicine would often rather treat symptoms than find cures. I've already seen statements, I believe in this very thread, that the "vaccine" is only good for like 8 months.

    No every interaction, but the important(in terms of exposure) ones that aren't necessary. It is VERY easy to do that.

    I'm not talking vetting the grocery store clerk before checking out. C'mon.

    So is booze completely isolating himself from every single person in the world? If so, then fine. But I seriously doubt that is happening.

    I bet booze goes to the grocery store. I bet he goes to work. I bet he goes to the pharmacy. I bet he interacts with other people. Is he not putting those people into the same risk category as he would his parents? Is he mad at himself for potentially infecting a stranger at Kroger or CVS?

    We're all at risk of giving this to someone else, even if we follow the rules.

    I don't believe I have seen that about the vaccine, that was about natural antibodies which are thought to last 3-8 months at least.

    But there's no difference.

    Does that grocery clerk not have a mother? A daughter?
