I've heard comments like "If it's covid, it's covid. Nothing I can do about it, so why bother testing?"

Aside from the antivirals available, the obvious reason to "bother testing" is to reduce the risk you pose to others. A dear friend works in my company's office (I'm in the field), and her son is immune-compromised. She takes every precaution but is disgusted by the number of people who come to work hacking and coughing.

That level of blind disregard should never have been ok, but certainly not in the age of covid, when there's no excuse for not knowing better.

The GI version sounds nightmarish. You have my every sympathy.
