COVID-19 is “Airborne AIDS”: provocative oversimplification, emerging science, or something in between?
COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 is often compared to other pandemics for its societal
and global health impact, with some commentators drawing parallels to HIV/AIDS due
to the immune dysfunction caused ...

To say people make a rational assessment of the threat environment around Covid… is just not true.
Most people refuse to talk about or read anything about Covid.
Long Covid has surpassed asthma as the most common childhood illness, and it’s rarely spoken of.
