My takeaway from reading today plus experiencing my life this past week is that 1. much of the Western world is in the throes of an Omicron-level covid surge, with geometric case spread, 2. if you don't want it and you're not in lockdown mode you to need to be VERY savvy, have a great fitting mask and assume that you ARE being exposed basically constantly 3. with this level of constant exposure, it's not going to take an hour or a lot of intimacy for you to get it 4. having covid still SUCKS. 👍🏻
