A False Sense of Security Is Very Dangerous
Here are some facts about the Covid-19 coronavirus. It's fatality rate is at least 2 percent. It could be more. Flu's fatality rate is .02 percent. So the Covid-19 is twenty times deadlier than the flu. And if you think about it, if you get one million people infected, 2 percent of one million is 20,000. So does anyone want to take a risk being one of those 20,000? As for flu, we have the flu shot, so that's also the reason why less people get the flu than if we didn't have the flu shot. Covid-19 has no vaccine, and it is more infectious and mutating. The more it mutates, the more powerful it becomes. And by the time, a vaccine gets developed against it, it would probably too powerful for the vaccine to go against it. Also there were instances in which some who recovered got infected again. In addition, my friend told me that she had a friend who got the SARS, and after that, even though she recovered, her health was never the same again. She was constantly in pain. Maybe this virus is not as bad as SARS, but would you take a chance? Or maybe your body is quite strong and will be able to fight this virus, and you will recover in no time. Well, how about the other people you will infect as you go around. Maybe their bodies are not strong enough to fight this virus. By the way, how about the medical cost? I am sure most medical insurance does not cover everything. Some or more will come out of your own pocket. Or how about your time away from work? Do you have enough sick leave just in case it stays with you for a while. How about your employer? Would he wait for you until you are healthy enough to go back to work? So for those who just take this lightly and give others a false sense of security. Well, don't. Of course, you can take the risk like I do as I continue to travel, but don't pretend you know more about the CDC and WHO. They're experts when it comes to this. Not you.
