The people who need to be the most careful about Covid, the unvaccinated, are the least careful. And the fully vaccinated have the least to worry from Covid, but are still careful with testing, social distancing when possible, and mask wearing.

I still here stories from Righties about Covid. They still don't think it's a big deal, they get it and won't social distance. When they do test positive, they just don't give a shit and go about their lives like normal, spreading it everywhere. I know a right wing family who got Covid and still went to family Christmas and now everyone has Covid in the family.

If you stay up to date on your Covid vaccines, go about your life, Covid is probably less dangerous than the flu to you.
