And if you have that viral load, you WILL have symptoms. That is basic physiology. That whole ruse of ‘asymptomatic transmission’ is a complete farce. But thats a topic for another discussion. My point is that the sickly and vulnerable populations need to be the one’s quarantining and isolating, not restricting the movements/lives of normal healthy people. Call me selfish or callous, but I’m not willing to live in some utopian society where we need to do a variety of things “for the greater good”. Do a risk assessment, determine which ones you are willing to accept for yourself and then live your life.
