I'd go tomorrow. Easily. Pretty much anywhere. The only drawback being a local return quarantine of a week at a preselected government approved hotel. Blah. That's actually more political & economic than medically related, but hey.
The worldwide demographics are still in the high (90-99% range) being over 65 years of age and with multiple pre-existing conditions that are most susceptible and will die, regardless. "Flatten the curve" meant the exact same number of people would die, but spread out over time. The Same Totals, just not overwhelmingly all at once. The majority of patients don't even know they have had it.
Add in the skyrocketing suicides, and secondary deaths by medical neglect (outpatients are closed)/ fear of care, economic effects (including hunger, bankruptcy, decreased production and the expected food shortages), etc... Protect the at risk populations, and let people live, especially those who are not at risk or choose to live. If they want to run and work at the hotel or dive shop, cool.
Side note, not as novel as initially expected and numbers of people pop up with resistance... or even more people didn't know they had it...
Covid-19: Do many people have pre-existing immunity?
Thanks for sharing the link
If the WHO takes into account the world population's pre-existing T-cell immunity like they were forced to, when presented with the science in 2009 with Swine Flu, this would change the entire modelling for covid outlooks, and a realisation that we're already at or close to something like "herd immunity"
I said a while back ago, that Indonesia will have herd immunity, and that many people would not even know they're infected. And now as evidenced in UK, India & China that >80% are asymptomatic with little to no symptoms
