    I mean sure, OK, but you can go your entire life without realizing you have a heart problem and then you just drop dead one day without ever realizing you were at risk. That’s the scary part. One person died while running on a track, decades before COVID was a thing. The other died at home and left four young children behind; wasn’t sick, no symptoms, just gone. I know three other people that just up and died from aneurysms.

    I’m not scared of dying, and I know that any given moment could be my last one ever, but I really like my life and I’ve got shit I still want to do, you know?

      Yeah, that’s what I’m saying: if you want to reduce the risk of just dropping dead, make sure you properly recover from viral infections, which are a major reason of that happening.

        Viruses have literally nothing to do with what I’m talking about. No one is talking about viruses here, not sure why you’re hung up on them.
