Idiotic things people have said to me about #COVID19 recently:
- Masks are about protecting other people and not me, so since no one cares, I choose not to wear one.
- The science on air filters is inconclusive.
- The pandemic is over and COVID is no longer a threat.
- It's mild now. I've had it twice, and it's no big deal.

Meanwhile, studies suggest our immune systems are weak, cardiovascular and diabetes risks are growing, and the case fatality rate is rising with each Omicron mutation.
