Yet, people talk about this virus like it's Ebola or some such. --They seem to enjoy spooking themselves and/or others.

It's not only a question of survival rate.
There are people who survive, but suffer a lot of symptoms even months after being discharged.
If nothing is done, and everybody pretends there's no need for any measures.. the impact would be much bigger.
The hospitals are already being pushed to the brink, and that is WITH measures taken to stop the spread.
I'm not worried bout myself getting the virus, but the main people i care about are 73 and 83. And my best friend who is my age but he had a kidney transplatn..
I can't afford to get the virus , because I don't want to infect them.
And IF i get it, I can't take care of the 83 year old with Alzheimer anymore.. She still lives alone, and she get's lonely if I don't visit her.
So yes, I'll get the vaccine as soon as I can.
Because i'm fed up with working at home since March last year.
I'm fed up having to read about people who keep breaking the rules and prolonging the entire ordeal.
Covid is real, but you know what's worse : how people have been dealing with it.
Self centered and stupid.
