I mean that's good if you get over it but the vaccine might stop people who would get it badly/fatally from getting it (or getting as bad a case) maybe? and yeah the health service is a big worry for us in Ireland too atm, it's bad here right now, 13 counties are at full capacity in ICU now (Cork included)
