Reality check:
COVID-19 is as endemic as the covonavirus common cold.
We are ALL going to be exposed, over and over again.
Many of us may show symptoms of infection from time to time.
Some of us may get really sick.
And a few us may actually DIE.
Life has risks.
You can hibernate in a vain attempt to eliminate risk but your burrow will eventually collapse.
I can’t tell you how many times I have gone swimming in the ocean, which is filled with sharks!

The President just tweeted that he and the First Lady have tested positive for Covid-19.
Remember the Twilight Zone episode with the old lady who NEVER came out of her *basement* apartment because she believed Death [played by Robert Raeford] could never get her, so long as she stayed put?
Yeah.
This is like that.

I wonder what the cultural fallout will be from the president getting it, and then coming out of it with little or no symptoms.
I think that if he dies, the country panics. But if he lives, it ends the stupid lockdown and masks. And my money is on the latter. Heck, he may have even timed this whole thing. Seriously.
Right on! Let my people go, Democrat Governors.
The common cold is a rhinovirus.
