Looking at his last sentence, I don't think Rich is advocating against 
vaccination - exactly the contrary.  He seems to be saying it has worked 
for him and his mother, despite a variety of relatively risky potential 
exposures.
Just got my 6th shot.

I traveled 88,000 miles last year and was at several conferences with
hundreds of other attendees - never got COVID.  I saw hundreds of
contesters at Dayton and at WRTC - including many in their 70s and
80s.  My mother who is 78 flies back and forth from the east coast
three times a year - did not get COVID.
Take precautions; get a vaccine.
 
 
 I'm happy for you. Both my wife and I are fully vaxed. Four of my 
friends have died, others have suffered from long COVID. I have health 
vulnerabilities, and so do my friends. Do you? How old are you? CDC 
says those of us over 70 are at greater risk. I'm 82, she's 2 years 
younger. She and I are enjoying life, and want to continue to do so. 
Years ago, I made a trip to the Caribbean with K4BAI, KU8E, and N3ZZ. 
I enjoyed it, but it wasn't cheap. And I wouldn't consider it safe to 
do it today.
