I have 2 relatives who are each in their low 70’s. One is constantly watching the news and is petrified of covid. She hardly leaves her home to socialize and is a nervous wreck. The other isolated a couple of months until they felt they had a bit of clarity. They looked at things with an open mind and decided that they would choose to live life. They compare is to going into a car etc and facing assumed risk like so many of life’s activities. They felt that going maskless was an acceptable risk as well. They did their research and take zinc and several other supplements prophylacticly, and wear masks only when stores mandate it. They say they are comfortable with their decision and accept the risk, which they do feel has been over hyped in general. They have lots of family ties in Israel and see the toll the lockdowns have taken and that has them convinced that they are making the right move.
