    True, but on the minus side, dumb people actively seeking out the infected milk would artificially increase the instances and thus the spread.

      But on the plus side, dumb people actively infect themselves and get removed from the gene pool.

        But on the minus side, other people don’t have the choice to completely avoid those dumb people and thus minimize their risk of infection.

        If they did, covid wouldn’t have been a tenth as bad as it was/is.

      I’m sorry I only see benefits here.

        That’s because you’re overlooking the fact that stupid people mingle with other people whether they want to or not.

        If you don’t have at least a handful of truly idiotic coworkers and neighbors, you’re probably a self-employed hermit…

            You still interact with other people in person, and one or more of them interacts with the public.

            If you learned nothing else from CoViD-19 I would hope you at least learned that you are only a couple degrees of separation from a hotbed of infection at most.

      I don’t care. Do you?

      They voted for this, they can deal with the consequences.

        Normally I’d say that I don’t want this to happen to a bunch of people who don’t deserve it, but drinking raw milk is preventable and not contagious, and therefore entirely self-contained, right? So yeah, sow those seeds, guys, I’m totally owned.
