If only your demise would be guaranteed to be that simple and quick but this disease does not usually cause an instant death. If you are stricken you may suffer a lot before you die and so will anyone who cared about you.
Are you justified in your denial because you are not in a ANY higher risk group? That’s doubtful since you chose to live in an entire community who are almost all at higher risk.
I think the officials probably should have made the higher risk folks of all ages—myself included—stay in lockdown rather than forcing those who could have been productive into isolation too. They would be gaining “herd immunity” the hard way, no vaccine needed. The problem is that some of them would not have survived and many, like you, would not have heeded selective isolation.
And we vote, the young don’t.
