    I mean sure, OK, but you can go your entire life without realizing you have a heart problem and then you just drop dead one day without ever realizing you were at risk. That’s the scary part. One person died while running on a track, decades before COVID was a thing. The other died at home and left four young children behind; wasn’t sick, no symptoms, just gone. I know three other people that just up and died from aneurysms.

    I’m not scared of dying, and I know that any given moment could be my last one ever, but I really like my life and I’ve got shit I still want to do, you know?

      Yeah, that’s what I’m saying: if you want to reduce the risk of just dropping dead, make sure you properly recover from viral infections, which are a major reason of that happening.
