If there was a choice to get covid or not I can imagine there are hundreds of thousands who did that instead would have chosen not to.

So stay home. Wipe down your deliveries. You may still be exposed when your infected upstairs neighbor turns on the vent fan and drops a deuce.

The risk is high-density housing is freakin' obvious: porch sitting with your neighbors, or the elevator.

If people take the idea of “nothing I can do to prevent Covid 100%, so screw it” it’s when irresponsible behavior begins. You already hear it with “It Trump got Covid, anyone can.” Which is total horse crap. Trump getting Covid and any of us getting Covid are all independent variables

To fully insulate yourself you would have to grow and cook your own food, never go into public for any reason, and never invite even relatives into your home. Pretty much makes it impossible in our society to avoid it.
