just going to the store is dangerous.

I meant ‘risky’ in terms of getting the disease.

The new variant is not terrible for vaccinated folks, but old people can still die from it, which is the real danger.

It’s super easy to spread to older friends and family.

Study already out that Omicron causes 80% less hospitalizations. Regardless, my point stands about the danger of leaving your house. You are more likely to die in a car crash.

I see dog attack made the list. Shark attack didn’t.
