Five people at my work including my direct boss had covid over the last year. Four of them are very obese and they all recovered just fine with only mild symptoms. None of them got it from each other as the time was spaced too far apart and they don't even work near each other.

Me and six other people were often crammed in a small non-ventilated office for 10-15 minutes several times a day with our boss with no masks on up until the time he tested positive and NONE of us got it.

My brother in law in his mid 40s who used to run marathons and was in perfect health was diagnosed with MS a couple years ago. He was managing his symptoms quite successfully up until he died from covid late last year. His entire immediate family got through covid with only mild symptoms.

So I really don't know what to think. I think it's real but no where near as deadly as they claim. I think my bro in law's immunity system was already messed up because of his MS and who knows.. a bad flu might have ended him anyway.

Regardless there's no way in Hell I'm getting vaxxed... I'm not even going to get tested if I get sick unless I end up in the hospital.
