    Yet that is not the attitude you have Germ. A dead fish can go with the flow.

    "I wish I hadn't lived a sedentary lifestyle, ate like crap, and smoked/drank too much" ?

    Because that's the common factor(s) in nearly 100% of those hospitalized under the age of 75.

    ***********

    Hey dude, don't get mad at me for using your own words against you. You did not qualify your 'folks' as ICU doctors- which as I said, is a pretty biased source considering who they interact with all day every day. Of course nobody wants a severe case of C19. But given that less than 5% of infected ever end up in the hospital (and that's pre-shots) and over 80% are either mildly or non-symptomatic; I'd wager there are a ton of people out there who are glad to have had C19 and be done with it. I certainly wish I had (assuming I have not.)

    I took your advice Germ
    Talked to my doctor,
    I’m 25 and in good health, 6’1” and 175 so weight isn’t a concern. I’ve had the rona with mild symptoms and still have good antibodies. He said the shot wasn’t necessary.

    "live a healthy life style, you live to be healthy' (my comments)... once again, Germ did a dodge, a weave and a zig zig avoiding his own comments "I wish I hadn't lived a sedentary lifestyle, ate like crap, and smoked/drank too much" ? .........

    Get a vaccine. Or Dont. I dont care. Smoke cigarettes? I dont care. Drink to a .30 every day? I don't care. Eat 77 spoonfuls of sugar every day? I dont care.

    Joe Biden should mandate every business over 100 people do random drug tests on people, question them weekly on their sugar/cigarette/alcohol use then they should be fired if they exceed the mandated level. Our hospitals and old folks homes are full of people of dying from lifestyle choices. That has to stop and the only way that can be accomplished is by a fake law imposed by a dictator who uses old emergency powers to craft whatever they want. If you smoke over 4 cigarettes a day...you are fired. Your insurance costs increase. You are publicly shamed. You drink more than 3 drinks a day then you are canceled. Fired at work.

    Now that I don't understand. I'm a libertarian with conservative leanings but if we(you) are pushing for self responsibility and accountability then why not make it all legal and see what happens. Self regulation is what distinguishes us from the animals.

    You can drink, eat red meat, and live your life but over 50 yearly health checks, oh and don't be fat.

    I’ve seen a few articles on the subreddit of r/coronavirus. The rumor is Omicron is showing mild symptoms and is highly transmissible. Apparently when a virus mutates this much it can do more harm to itself then good. This could be the mutation we have waited for to truly move on. Will the media portray that to us? No, they will still use fear and scare tactics.

    Anyhow, there could be good news for this mutation. One of these articles were from Israel as well.

    Hmm….the name of the new Covid variant can be rearranged into another word.
