(15,641 posts)I did take precautions for COVID, yes. But I also wasn't terribly afraid either. I was also talking precautions more as a civic duty than out of fear for my own health -- I didn't want to be the person who caught COVID and passed it on to someone else who might not handle it as well.
The risk of getting COVID was also way, way higher than stranger sexual assault, so I don't know if your question about COVID effectively helps clarify anything here.
Oh, and a point about making assumptions: You simply claimed, not even tentatively proposed, that I was "assiduously avoiding (your) question". You were wrong. Keep that in mind about the many other things you might assume, without good reason, about what I have said or will say. You aren't as good at reading between the lines as you imagine.
