[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am old, 70, so elderly with no immune system, according to the science. Haven't had a booster in 2 years, caught covid for the first time and only took a test because it was a strange symptom combo. Very sore throat which I took numbing throat lozenges, and being very chilled so I took hot baths. That lasted 2 days and nothing else. So milder and shorter than a cold and as a frail vulnerable I should be in intensive care. [/quote] Yeah they could have done a much better job of describing the risks of COVID to the public. Some very smart people were going around saying anyone who is elderly would definitely die if they got COVID. Public health often treats the public like we are stupid and it shows. They think regular people can't handle nuanced messages. Any maybe for many people that's true, but people will also be turned off and disengage when they see that the simplified message is just not true. [/quote]
