I've known three people who got COVID in the past two weeks. All of them posted photos of their events in the weeks leading up to their infection. Not one of them posted they had #COVID19.

I get tired of people saying "everyone's back to normal" and "I never hear of anyone sick." The social pressure for "normalcy" demands we share every crowded event and then hide our infections and illness.

If you're COVID-cautious, just realize you are not alone, no matter what your social media feeds show.

@augieray saw my 82 yr old mil at fred meyer yesterday unmasked - she has been incredibly careful for years but apparently now she is back to eating in restaurants and going everywhere unmasked... she is fully vaxxed and walks 5 miles a day - very healthy person but still...

@aliza @augieray My 73 yr old FIL just passed away from complications (soil-based sinus infection, extreme weight loss, etc) after his #SARS2 infection earlier in the year 2023.

It didn't help he was on chemo near the time of infection. He was in remission at his passing, for the nits.

Cherish your loved ones, especially when they choose to live dangerously.
