A lot of anecdotal stories I see from young people who have gotten it talk about it being the worst illness in their life and feeling close to needing hospital care. I think I'll pass. There is more than live/die in the end, such as maintaining quality of life.
The numbers are absolutely clear: if you’re under the age of 50, you are overwhelmingly likely to have nothing more than a minor illness. Over 30% of infections are estimated to be asymptomatic. In New York, over 90% of hospitalizations (in addition to being heavily skewed to the elderly) involved one or more comorbidities. Nearly 90% had two or more.
This really shouldn't be downvoted. It's factually accurate that the vast majority of people who get this who are young and healthy do not experience even noteworthy symptoms. Stories of it being the worst illness people have ever experienced are likely to be cherrypicked, especially because most people who had the unremarkable symptoms won't even know it.
Acknowledging that most cases are minor and not that bad doesn't mean you have to run down the entire path of doubting the virus' threat.
Regarding anti body tests, there was literally just a notice from the CDC saying the current tests can't really be trusted for policy decisions. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/lab/resources/anti...
