Just like HR departments exist solely to protect corporations from lawsuits this agreement is there to protect corporations from idiotic lawsuits insinuating that the dumbass who went into the office unmasked and got covid somehow takes zero responsibility for their behavior.

Or is this your way of saying that you're opting into getting a free smallpox infection this year because children get 5 to 8 viral infections a year? We still have some small stockpiles of smallpox if you're so inclined.

I genuinely can't decipher what point you are making?

Infections are natural and cool? OK! Help yourself to HIV, smallpox, polio, hantavirus, covid, measles, MERS, and Ebola. Can you feel that healthy natural immunity building now or what?
