    People who need transplants had to worry about illness just as much BEFORE covid

    Delta is more contagious than cold, flu or whatever, so probably not just as much.

      yeah but since the cold or flu was enough to kill them before covid, they took effective precautions. i don't know how much more they can do than that?

        Wearing several masks instead of one or wearing a uncomfortable properly fit N95. Not attending indoor gatherings. Not leaving their house at all.

          pretty sure that was standard for transplant patients and other extremely immunocompromised people before covid, no?

                Yeah, but I assume some of them used to leave their house, with a mask or what not, at least occasionally. Now with delta this kind of behavior has a higher chance to fuck them up, hence making them stay home more, which is why I think it is fair to say that they have to worry now more than before.
