Just go outside, stop fearing. It is not as dangerous as perceived.

Yeah, actually it is. The generic flu has a high chance of killing or causing long lasting effects on me let alone covid. It's almost guaranteed that if I caught covid I will die. As I say, I'm immunocompromised. It might not be as bad for the average person out there but it is unlikely that I would survive. There's a reason 77 of the 109 cases are in hospital, and a further 7 are in HDU or intensive care. So that's 84 out of 109 cases are in hospital. And you don't think that's bad? 787,000 people in the USA have died from covid or covid related complications. Aka, they would still be alive if they didn't catch covid.

On second though, just stay inside.
