Re: Using MicroCOVIDs to Quantify Your Covid Risk
#2Cool idea. Would it be possible to further break down the risk? Getting Covid has different levels of risk for different people.
I’ve never seen a clear analysis that explains the risks for a particular person of 1. Having symptoms 2. Having symptoms severe enough to be unable to function for several weeks 3. Severe enough to require oxygenation/short hospitalization 4. Severe enough to require long term hospitalization
The other question is how this risk compares to other activities. I have no idea whether driving to the store is more or less risky than being in the store during the pandemic.

#3This looks pretty thorough and is a better stab at quantifying things than I've seen before. Thank you!

interesting, although the risk to one person might be calculable, but each of us interacts with others who might not be fortunate enough to take on that risk. It would be much harder to take those people into account also. Taking on risks that might have negative consequences with the clerk at the grocery store, or your own family members feels selfish.
