So we’re still rolling the dice as far as getting a bad covid. Yeah, the virus has generally gotten less serious, but it still has the potential to be serious, and it’s still killing lots of people.
Has it? The last I heard, the new strains were even more infectious and more dangerous, but people weren’t getting as sick thanks to the vaccines.
But that was before this current strain, which is resistant to boosters from before late September and is the cause of the second highest spike in infections the US has seen, with an estimated 2 million new cases on the 11th alone. Hopefully, this new strain has mutated to be less dangerous than the original, and that’s why it’s resistant to the vaccines/boosters except for the most recent.

So it’s not the same as sneezing.
Not to mention long COVID. Personally know at least 2 people who got it (myocarditis or something? Can’t remember).
All with recent booster shots?
Yes. One is also a doctor. She got vaccinated earlier than most of us. Same with boosters.
That’s why everyone should get yearly booster shots (same with the regular flu).

Id heard they are more infectious, but I had not heard they are more dangerous.
