Just got to thinking about people who didn't stay in and spread Covid early on

I know this is mostly a different strain now but when you think about how one person can infect several people and those several people infect several people and so on and so on. It's possible some idiots may have killed thousands if not tens of thousands of people and will never know it. Sure, some people taking precautions spread it as well, but that is different from people who were reckless.

Some people, early on, who weren't even aware the virus existed, (we were ALL unsuspecting idiots "early on&quot spread it which in turn infected thousands or 10's of thousands of people. Many of which may have died. To say idiots "killed" thousands if not 10's of thousands isn't really a fair accusation when referring to "early on." . Can you be 100% sure you didn't carry it but not get infected before you even knew it was a thing? Fast forward to now, when we have a vaccine and well established avoidance protocol well, that's a whole different story.

And we continue to do so. We're still here, we have survived so far and we are
determined to survive.
