[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very few people who are vaccinated will die from covid now. The very few who might are medically fragile and the onus is on them to protect themselves rather than the other way around.

I just read a headline today that the suggested requirement to quarantine for five days after a positive test is going to be lifted.

But they might die from or be incapacitated by long covid from multiple infections.  We cannot keep getting covid 2-3 times per year and expect to not have detrimental effects.  
Why do you think "everyone is sick with something respiratory" currently?  Mainly because people's immune systems are shot.  This was not normal pre-covid.

I'm 7 times vaxed (2 boosters last fall).  Just got covid for the first time.  Started paxlovid 24 hours after first symptom.  Let me tell you that what I just had with covid was still way worse 
than "a cold".  It ranked up there with the last time I got the actual Flu 7 years ago (had tamiflu with that as well).  This was worse than my flu and my flu, even with tamiflu, knocked me out for a week and another 2-3 weeks before I was anywhere close to a "return to normal".  So if I can be that sick after being vaxed/boosted and Paxlovid I really don't want to see how it would be without any of those precautions/aides.

Now note: the last real illness I had was the flu 7 years ago.  Nothing else since then except a few very minor colds.  So even for the first 3 years where nobody masked (pre covid), I was not continuously sick.  
Yet now everyone (who isn't masking when out in public) is routinely sick, almost constantly.  What has changed?  They've all had covid 2, 3, 4+ times. [/quote]
You got two boosters last fall and you still caught covid?[/quote]
