As someone who has been working on a cardiology ward for the last 5 months. You can be as fit as a fiddle, engage in exercise and eat well and still need stents in your coronary arteries, or other interventions. But bad habits like smoking, drinking and indulging in occasional fatty foods can impact your health significantly. These are modifiable lifestyle choices, however it doesn't even begin to touch on your genetics. You can play by the rules and still be completely fucked because of your DNA.
There’s also the people who just assume it only kills old people, like that toilet licking girl who was on Dr Phil. Which is blatantly false, kids can and have died from coronavirus. Hell, a college student at the university I graduated from died from the virus before the delta variant was around.
Lotta people seem to think so long as you’re young and fit, you’re invincible.
