    Went to an open mic last night. Shoulder to shoulder, not a mask in sight. And I don't think anyone there was over 30 either, so it's not just brainworm-ridden boomer thing.

    I kept my mask on until I started drinking. I'm fairly sure I've already had Omicron, or if not I have contracted it from my dad and am yet to test positive on lateral flows.

      that is genuinely scary and makes me want to continue staying inside forever. I hope by some miracle you remain covid negative

        I appreciate your concern, but I'm not too worried about myself. I'm vaccinated and not in an "at-risk" group, so it would be like having flu for me (which still sucks, but is manageable).

        My dad wasn't vaccinated though, and Covid ended up giving him inflammation of the brain. He's still in the ICU right now. I didn't even know Covid could do that, but here we are.

          I mean, even if you're okay and miss work for 5 days there's still a period in which you can infect others if you're not careful. it's an exponential effect which is what's really dangerous. kids and old people are especially at risk, even more so if not vaccinated

            I'll be doing daily tests for the next few weeks, so I'll be able to isolate quickly if I come up positive. Let's hope I won't need to, though!
