"78",
I don't want to put words into Peter's mouth but I think what he was referring to is the latest statements coming from various medical and health authorities, and that is, this pandemic will turn into an endemic situation and we will all eventually be exposed just like we are to the flu (vaccinated or not). The major difference is that Covid is much more infectious (contagious on the order of measles (almost)), has a much higher rate of serious complications (like hospitalizations and Long Covid), and a higher mortality rate (especially for the not vaccinated and/or those with co-morbidities).

Every decision has potential risks, and each has to decide what is best for them.

The border restrictions will probably be ongoing for a long time, therefore having an impact on boating, but let's hope not.
