When you destroy/squeez fungus in the forest it takes centuries to recover[1]. In Prussia when they started with scientific forestry, productivity of the forrest dropped significantly after around 100 years[2].

Good times to come. I wonder why we look the other way, even when we have all the knowledge on our hands.

Two great books: [1]: The Hidden Life of Trees [2]: Seeing Like a State

Maybe as a possible help/hint. There are theories that you get sunburned more if you wear glasses. Something with a part of the region that does some kind of hormonal regulation.

Did you heard of this book, Pain Free at Your PC? For me it's hard put into practice because of the time demand, but exercises and reasoning is quite good.

If you check my comment you will see that I agree that its good thing for people with associated diseases that can complicate recovery:).

So age and associated diseases should be deciding factor for every person. Or are you proposing something else?:)

From ones body perspective. What is the reason to take vaccine risk if you are healthy <~50/have no disease that complicate covid recovery?

From societal perspective, why would you do it if you can transmit it in the same amount as if you are not vaccinated?

Doesn't makes sense to me, but well..

I do think that it's a good thing for people that have disease that can complicate covid recovery and older generations.

“We were bored doing the housewife thing,” recalls Ely today. “I was ready to be something.”

Sounds like the approach Edward Bernays would take

I am just pointing this out because severe seasonal flu that appears in some years has reportingly ~0.1 fatality rate. Then my explanation would be that those two are comparable. Except covid spreads faster and therefore we see more death in shorter period?

Please poke holes in my theory:) I would like to se poking holes in my theory:)

I agree that tests have a high false positive rate, but still how would you interpret results we got?

In Slovenia we did random sample testing. Out of this we concluded that 3% of population had covid-19. This is 60000 people of which ~100 people die. This gives death rate around 0.17. Majority were people in elderly homes with many other diseases.
