It is no worse than influenza except for when it is worse than influenza.[/quote]

I'm honestly most worried about young people because they have so much more of their lives to live.  Every time they get Covid-19 there is a chance that they will get some of the long term symptoms. How is that going to affect my child's ability to finish their education?  How will repeated infections affect my child's long term health?

It now looks like Epstein-Barr triggers Multiple Sclerosis... what could multiple Covid-19 infections turn out to trigger decades down the line?  [b]Why would I sign up to run that risk over and over again?

Do you think we should all wear masks beginning in infancy to  spare us the 0.03 percent chance of getting MS?[/quote]

Honestly, I mostly want better, healthier air quality.  We could be improving ventilation and filtering the air in public spaces... that would help us all reduce the number of times any of us get sick.  With Covid or Flu or RSV or any other airborne disease.[/quote]
