Some people have adventures and others have “in-ventures”. You are ok with holing up in your abode for years of your life to avoid a mild risk (assuming you are under 70 years old and reasonably healthy). Others are not willing to live this way and would like the freedom to make that choice. Some people, by the way, have less choice, like the people that deliver your food and merchandise to the cave you call home or the people that treat your non-covid (of course) injuries and ailments.

Just because you didn't get it yet doesn't mean you can avoid it forever. Expecting permanent unceasing vigilance by everyone is absurd and unrealistic. The virus will never go away. Do you really think young people should cancel all parties forever?

I don't have numbers handy, but I would suspect that at least 10x more Americans caught Covid at work as out partying. If only because people spend more time at work.

Only about a third of American households had anyone working from home during the pandemic. https://www.census.gov/library/stories/2021/03/working-from-...

I do agree. Work and school are those special places where "COVID doesn't spread", according to the powers that be.

Who are those "powers that be"? According to OSHA[0] and CMS[2], workplaces (general workplaces and healthcare settings that accept Medicare and Medicaid funding, respectively) have grave risks of COVID transmission.

In fact, they feel so strongly about it that they've taken it to the US Supreme Court[1].
