In reply to the discussion: "COVID-Cautious Americans Feel Abandoned" [View all]SouthernDem4ever
(6,618 posts)58. I am still pretty hermitized since the COVID 19 hit the scene
Am vaxxed and boosted many times and never succumbed to the virus but still worry about it to a degree since there's a large faction of anti-vaxxers playing russian roulette with their lives. The more you let it infect, the more it will morph into different variations making it impossible to control. Still, I am more worried about the domestic terrorists in our country than COVID 19.

I'm mocking the poll's "somewhat worried", which is amorphous and ill-definied.

For it to be as high as 26%, I'd have to conclude not just masking, but avoiding being in public at all...

Still mask indoors outside of my own apt. Unmask outdoors, but avoid big crowds, or mask when passing modest groups...

I take precautions, but I would be surprised if I didn't get it at some point over the past few years.
