Which side of THIS fence are you on? Why?

An Answermug pal said this about Covid 19. Something that some embrace. "We need to be exposed to the virus in order to build personal and societal defense to it". D'ya think that's true or just more bullsh**?

Why bother with vaccines or antidotes to anything? Why bother putting out any fires? Let everything happen without any interference from now to forever futurely. It's good for us.

So which avenue of action do you think is most best? Trying to PREVENT getting ill/letting homes burn or just wallowing in it and taking your chances? Why?

    This is called "herd immunity" where the majority of a community have been infected and have immunity thereby protecting those who have not been exposed.

    If I were older or had prior medical issues, I would continue to stay home if possible. At least until there was a treatment available.
