Reply to comment by cdbloosh in World Cup in station north by Brief_Exit1798

Nah. We're back to pandemic levels of transmission. The flu this year is really bad. Wearing a mask indoors is recommend again. The risk is pretty high.

I'm also not a people person, and certainly not a crowded place person no matter the circumstances. I'm happiest hanging out with 3 close friends, or trail riding in the open with friends.

Then you’re free to not go watch the World Cup at a brewery, but that doesn’t make your original comment any less odd.

We’re 3 years into this, it’s not a pandemic anymore, it’s never going away, vaccines are readily available, and it’s not sensible or realistic to expect people to just stop participating in social activities 3-4 months out of the year en masse for the rest of time, even if you personally don’t think it’s worth the risk.

It’s really unfortunate and kind of sad that your instinctive reaction to seeing a picture of people participating in a normal social activity and supporting a local business is still “oh my god these people are going to get sick”. It’s not May 2020 anymore.
