[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Like, you would rather get it repeatedly even if it's going to take 20 years off your life?  Because you don't want to mask?  Even if it takes 40 years off your life?  Even if it makes you have a heart attack in 2 years?  Because you don't like masking THAT much?

It's a strange hill to die on, but okay.[/quote]

If I thought thought those numbers were even remotely realistic, I would take action. [b]There's no reason to believe that getting Covid-19 repeatedly is any worse than getting any other non-novel coronavirus repeatedly[/b]. We've lived with the other common coronaviruses for quite some time now. The only reason it was so dangerous in the first place is that we didn't have any existing immunity when it started. [/quote]

NP, and I’m not really wedded to convincing you, but it’s very easy to look to direct medical sources that say otherwise.  Making the comment that you just did makes me think that you don’t follow this very closely, which is of course your choice, but it is an uninformed opinion.  [/quote]
+1 We only have a few years of evidence, but there is a lot of evidence that covid causes lasting damage to some people. The metabolic stuff is the most interesting/scary to me. [/quote]

To some people, yes of course. Mostly people who were very sick. To all people, no. That’s not real life. Do you guys really believe Covid is going to take 20-40 years off the lives of people who get it?![/quote]
Don’t be ridiculous. But the people who say it’s exactly like the common cold are also ridiculous. We don’t know yet what kind of real-world consequences there might be, if any, and what populations might be affected. But there is no doubt that covid is causing unexpected and persistent changes in different organ systems for some people. [/quote]
