Should you catch Omicron ‘to get it over with’ and re-use N95 masks?

With the latest variant being so contagious, there’s a sense of “let’s just get it over with.” That lax attitude is troubling health professionals, including Dr. Jose Mayorga, the executive director of the UCI Health Family Health Centers. … Dr. Mayorga: “You do not know how serious COVID infection will be for you or the people you live with. That’s a big issue. We don’t want to be spreading this around, especially to those at home. … the best thing to do is to ensure that you’re up to date on your vaccinations and taking the right precautions.”
