    That’s me. I stayed home, avoided events, and waited to go to restaurants until cases were down. When I did go places, I went when it wasn’t busy and sat outside. Avoiding COVID wasn’t rocket science, all you had to do was follow the basic principles of disease prevention.

    Yeah. You’ll win nothing. :-D

    Just like the guy whose name was Peter Ninth, born on 9.9.1999, who was living in flat number 9… On his 19th birthday he bought a ticket on horse race for the horse number 9.

    The horse ended up ninth.

    At this point it’s highly unlikely that there remains a human in an urban center that has not caught covid once. Maybe they didn’t have symptoms, maybe they didn’t notice, but they’ve had covid.

    That or they’re a hermit.

      I live in one of the largest US cities, attend concerts, use public transit, and fly internationally. No covid in this house, and we go through a box of RATs a week. Not immunocompromised, we just don’t want covid.

      The secret: we wear respirators everywhere and use nasal spray before & after risky situations.

    meanwhile i got vaccinated 4 times and still caught it twice - is there a prize for that end of the spectrum?

    I would have said the same. 3 and a half years working retail during the pandemic and last week was the week it knocked me on my ass. Be careful.

    Avoid kids, don’t go outside unless you have to, don’t touch everything you see like you’re some kind of toddler; hands in your pocket. Don’t slack on basic precautions, gravitate towards old people and if you see a white girl cough, drop your path and reroute to avoid them.

    The first and last ones are by far the most important to follow; by far the biggest vectors of the disease.
