Because apparently it's not THAT deadly.

Neither CV-19 nor any of its variants are deadly, as you know but there are other effects. My wife just told me about her cousin's kid who is twelve and so terrified of CV he refuses to go to school. Mental problems caused by publicity are worse than the supposed disease itself.

Is your wife's extended family stupid? Do they legitimately lack the collective comprehension to explain to a 12 year old that no children are harmed by covid?

Depends how far away you are, what your house is built of and whether you are near water.

Pyroclastic flows explode on contract with water, I wonder if that made the ones at Pompeii and Herculaneum worse.
