From what I can tell we have already passed peak government response. Sure i could continue locking myself down, quit and get a WFH job so that i can survive, and just basically never do anything else.
Is that only reasonable response to just get COVID and toss the dice that it'll be mild?
Yes. Even if it becomes endemic (likely), treatments 1-2 years from now will be better and more available then they are today. Right now you need to suck it up until you're on the verge of being intubated, but eventually you'll go straight to your doctor to get medicine and anything else you need to be treated before it becomes a major issue.
Hmmm good point.
I think my risk of getting seriously I'll for it are near zero. Long COVID is what I have to worry about
I mean, in 1-2 years, treatments for it will also be better in 1-2 years.
