Dying isn't the only bad thing that can happen to you if you contract SARS-CoV-19, and it's not just about you.


Many respiratory viruses have “long” symptoms. Covid is not even close to unique in that regard. Should we shut down everything and force little kids to wear masks for 8 hours a day for the annual flu?

Luckily, nothing else has reached that level. Yet.
