So, I am guessing you have yourself regularly tested for these diseases (they can remain dormant for years) and I am assuming you demand a very very recent clean bill of health (hopefully one you can trust) from anyone you decide to become intimate with (‘sex’ can mean a lot of things)). I am not a Dr - but, I know MANY more people who have contracted these diseases - HIV HPV HSV - and these are diseases that can not be cured. They have no vaccines for us (older folks) for these diseases. I would take being infected with Covid a million times more over any one of those diseases - yes - I am not exaggerating. ** I am so *NOT* afraid of Covid. (I wear a mask and distance - I do not do it for me - I do it to be kind to those with the fear.) I look forward to the day to we can share smiles with strangers.
I am afraid of many of the threats we all face - every day. Covid is *not* one of them.
