Argg. So infuriating.
The risk of long COVID is ~10%.
The risk of lung cancer in smokers is ~10%.
If you wouldn't smoke, you should take COVID seriously too.
I know multiple people with long COVID. You don't want it.
I'm sure some will quibble about the exact numbers (well actually 6%!, well actually 20%!), but the point is that getting COVID is definitely not a no-risk thing.
