Now that said those who are unfortunate to come down with Covid - 19... FYI, very few people actually die from it. Now % wise more die from the " Flu " than Covid-19 .
Since you can no longer ski perhaps you should think seriously about taking up Skateboarding. Or Waterskiing ....

The fact is that more people die with COVID then the flu. 50% of the population has hypertension, 40% are obese and 1% have diabetes....all treatable under normal conditions. COVID attacks the immune system so the normal treatments can't help the immune system. So yes, a small percentage (I think 6%) die from the virus but the other 90+ percentage die with the virus and it is a contributor. I also ponder how many of those that say if you are sick stay home and haven't been tested.....we don't know how many are asymptomatic. Cases are going up, hospitalizations are going up, deaths are going up so yes, it's a personal decision, would be nice if people made it unselfishly....but those days are gone.
