Same. And it’s the potential quieter vascular and neurological issues that most concern me. Having a “mild” covid experience that is causing deeper internal damage. I’m less concerned about a week of discomfort, this stuff wreaks havoc in so many other ways. Prefer to avoid.
That's what the fear mongers make you believe, but there is actually no evidence that it is a concern in the average mild infection in a healthy person.
Oh my you really believe that. You even plugged in lingo.
Most medical experts around the world believe that, so why shouldn't I? Because Leonardi and EFD tell you otherwise?
Wow you’re on a mission to be a jerk.
Yes, it's really a d*ck move to point out that people don't need to be quite as afraid as they are.

Then spend less time on Twitter. Or follow the experts that actually look critically at data.
You must not be.
I must not be what?

Most people have mild cases, period. Regardless of how strongly you feel or don’t feel about mitigation efforts
I recently had a very mild (nearly asymptomatic) case but it was still very disruptive (and expensive) because (a) kids had to be home from daycare / camp and we couldn’t hire childcare and (b) three of my four teammates were out for 1-2 weeks of flu like symptoms with it so one other person and I were scrambling to try to cover for them. I don’t recommend catching it even if you barely notice (I had a scratchy throat for a day. Got tested because one of ny children - who ended up having the flu - was getting tested at the same time.)
I recommend not getting sick with anything. But I don't know that it's terribly practical.
