> . It shows up in new parents who don't introduce their children to family for risk of covid.

This is asinine.

Just because politics tells you everything is normal, everything is decidedly not normal. COVID is still an endemic and very serious disease.

Dropping mask mandates were a seriously and deadly mistake.

You are a danger to society. Hope you are proud of yourself.

See you at the Herman Cain Awards.

My point was not to debate the seriousness of covid but talk about relative risk. If you think covid is very serious and it's perfectly logical to take some precautions with your child.

To my point, there is a huge difference between taking your child to a sports game and introducing it to one or two people over the course of a year. If you magically knew there is a 1 in 10 chance your child would die, of course don't do it. The question is when would you start to do it. One in a million chance, one in a billion? At some point the logic of better safe than sorry works against you.

No, completely isolating is the only sane choice right now thanks to the idiots dropping the mask mandate. The risk is too high.

If and that's a very big if, the other households does a PCR test and masks up then but only then would I take a small child there.
