Conclusion: I think that at some point almost all will get infected (in the range of 75-90%) and, hopefully, vaccines would help with reducing mortality and serious effects-that's what the main purposes should be anyway, but people would get upset by the fact that current vaccines (even the best) are not as clear-cut as we all hoped them to be.
Either way we will get herd immunity its just whether we do it the easy or the hard way.
Personally I took the blue pill, if I was younger it might have been the red..I am not going to proclaim that you took the wrong actions, yet I doubt that anyone should be letting you off so easy as to allow you to proclaim that you get a pass in your critical thinking attempts based merely on age... .
Yeah, sure, I understand that you may well be implying that there are other reasons beyond mere age, such as various risk factors, including the fact that for sure OLDer fogies are not as likely to be able to tolerate as much physical abuse or even bad habits in order to become vulnerable to limitations of their own body to repair itself.
For example, I recall putting my body through all kinds of abuses in my teens and in my 20s, and I maintained a pretty decent physique and pretty high levels of energy... and so in some sense, when you are younger, you might not know what you do know or the concrete recognition of limitations that could come from seemingly improving habits in a lot of ways such as food, sleep and exercise, but even with those various improvements, the energy levels (and even in-shapeness) are no where near to what they had been in earlier years.. ...
Anyhow, my point is just to show that we should not be giving up on our critical thinking skills, even if there are some truths in regards to becoming more conservative in a lot of ways.. just for self preservation purposes, and if you are NOT in pain every day, the vast majority of folks would probably prefer to live into their 70s or later rather than perishing in their 40s or 50s.. which does sometimes happen to folks based on their beliefs that they are stronger than they are, and they end up going through a surprise health event that shows them both that they are not as physically strong as they thought (factually) and that sometimes they will end up dying from such surprise health event or becoming quite disabled - even if they might have been captain of the football team.. or some other seemingly impervious and invincible health indicators in their youth.
When we where dreaming and rooting for page parity and now where 10 k higher + page count is waaaaay higher as when we where rooting
Living the dream tbh
That we the fundamental posters of the WO have had the privilege of being mixed in BTC this early
Waaaauw
I got a chuckle out of this expression... "fundamental poster"...
I wonder? is ur lil selfie and yours truly "fundamental posters"? hahahahaha...
no need to answer these kinds of "knowing it when you see it" kinds of findings.. I am just asking rhetorically in order to inspire my lil selfie to chuckle more.

Personally I took the blue pill, if I was younger it might have been the red..Yeah, but if you gain immunity through having your God-given immune system work for you as intended, the media wants you to feel like a shitty and selfish person. Shame on you!
God never gave me shit in this life, I've had to work for everything I've received.
Whoaza!!!!!
Another chuckle must be exerted by yours truly.
I know that you must be exaggerating a wee bit, Hueristic.
We could probably point out almost any topic and recognize/appreciate that there was some luck (or god-given) involved in getting from point A to point B... Sure, you may well have guided the direction, and for example you probably would not have been able to do shit, in terms of the taking advantage of the opportunity, absent some preparations... some luck is more preparation based than others, and for example, I feel pretty damned privileged to have been able to live as long as I have (so far... not giving up, yet)... , and I can imagine quite a few scenarios in which I were to have made different choices in my past, and end up screwing myself in some ways... but sure, sometimes we cannot really know about the possible alternative past paths that had been chosen 10 years earlier, because just like Robert Frost said, sometimes only certain ones of those paths will ONLY come up once.. and whether you choose this kind of profession or that kind of profession could get you locked into something that would have been much different (not sure if better or worse, but still.. I feel grateful for some things that I have going for me - even bitcoin.. blowing it off can make a decent amount of difference versus taking action.. that ends up being 4 years earlier than the blowing it off route.. .. and people proclaim "you are so lucky."..... sure, yes, there was a certain amount of luck in those contemplations and those actions and those considerations regarding how much time do I have available that I can learn about this? Some people have very little time to study (or abilities to understand very well certain kinds of ideas).. lucky, for sure.. I am feeling...
Reminds me: "do you feel lucky, punk?")...

I think some things you are born with them, or in some cases your body develops the immunity or resistance as long as you can survive it, and that about covers what some people call as their deity.
Like most people, I had an adult care for me at least until 5 or 6 years old, then still be dependent on them until around 18 to 21; I lived with my parents until a little bit after that, save money on a place to sleep and eat.
And, that is another pretty decent example, too. I feel lucky about having parents, even though by the time I was a teenager I thought I knew more than them (which was hardly true).. even though of course, each person does have a differing perception, so inevitably there were going to be things that I knew that they did not know.. but they were still helpful in a variety of ways, and surely I could think of seemingly worse upbringing circumstances - relatively speaking.
