Since I've taken up this platform I've only put out one post "of my own" and that was really just a test to see if anyone would engage on this strange, new place I was checking out. I prefer to respond to other people and discuss what's on their minds rather than to put my own topics out there. But this has really been bugging me lately, so I'm going to throw it out there and if no one cares then nothing changes and I'll keep kicking it around in my own mind.

If you don't want to hear or think about COVID feel free to tune out now and not follow along with the rest of my thoughts.

I am really interested in what people have to say here, and I welcome any real life thoughts on the subject whether you are having the same experiences or not. What I'm really not interested in is any "COVID isn't real" or "plandemic" nonsense and I'll block accordingly.

@BE - Thank you for the thread. I know that anecdotal evidence isn't data, but it helps to fill out the gaps and point those who are interested in the direction of further questions. I have been careful, living alone and having few social contacts, but on a long-arranged trip to Budapest in July and despite masking in airports and on flights, caught Covid. I remain fuzzy-headed but have otherwise recovered fully. Few in either airports or on the planes wore masks. I find it unbelievable.

It really is unbelievable. I often mention that I do a lot of genealogy and I often think about those people from the distant past and how ashamed(and shocked) they'd be about all of the people running into the pandemic without any worries!

I hope the last of that brain fuzziness passes and you get fully healthy again. Stay safe out there!
