I would like to remind everybody where viruses mutate.
I feel like Dr. Seuss when I say: Do they mutate in the air? Do they mutate everywhere? Do they mutate on the ground? Do they mutate all around?
No.
They mutate within living creatures.
The host.
You are a living creature.
You are a host.
When you contract #Covid, you are potentially a Petri dish for such mutations.
It mutates a lot. It's a virus. That's its job; to survive and infect hosts.
You, yes you, are potentially a vector for transmission of a mutated version of the virus every time you get it.
This is the piece that nobody cares to understand.
These new variants come from people who get infected and spread it. They don't magically come from Narnia or a different dimension or trees. They come from people.
You are people.
If you get sick, you are potentially cooking up a mutation of the virus that will then go on and harm another person. Maybe dozens. Maybe thousands.
Is that fucking simple, but nobody pays attention to this. Nobody cares.
Yes, the only ways to stop transmission of this current virus includes doing things that you don't like to do:
Wear a well-fitted #N95 or higher respirator in the presence of others.
Ventilate and clean indoor air.
Monitor CO2.
Avoid potential super-spreader events.
Don't go out when you're possibly sick without wearing a good mask.
Don't assume you don't have the virus if you think or know you've been exposed. (Asymptomatic transmission is at least half of transmission these days.)
Don't be a petri dish. Please. Just don't.

@hacks4pancakes I wish you well and at the same time wish you weren't having to do this.
