>>Of course, but it's difficult to rationalise that to the the relatives of a reasonably healthy 65 year old who thought he was safe.
Well, without wishing to be rude, he clearly was misinformed or not that bright. Nobody is *safe*. Differing levels of risk, but nobody is safe.
Thinking that one is safe is exactly why we see so many people taking unwise risks.
However, we are clearly moving towards a world where one has to keep oneself as safe as possible. We can no longer lock down a country / school / whatever every time one person gets sick.
As is often said, we need to get used to living with it. The time for hysteria is past.
