I'm really glad that you had a mild case.  I still think it is more serious than the flu, but I don't think it is a death sentence.  You figure the media took the worst possible cases and spun them into the norm.  But then, in NYC, where people live packed like sardines, it's no wonder that so many of the elderly and those basically unhealthy died.  

Yesterday I went to a meeting of about a dozen or so people.  A lot of us had masks, but some didn't.  No one confronted each other.  The room wasn't big enough to have chairs 6 feet apart, but they were staggered so no one was in each others face.  I didn't feel uncomfortable.  I think the media and the Democrats feel it is to their advantage to keep the COVID front and center and play on people's fears.  In the last month I have ventured out more than I did in the previous months - I went to get my hair cut and I've gone into stores, other than grocery and Costco and I didn't feel uncomfortable.  You may think that I was crazy not to go out that much before this past month, but it a way it has been a blesssing for me personally.
