As someone in our midlife, coping with the pandemic is somewhat more difficult than it is for others. We are much more susceptible to having a stronger reaction to the virus because of our age.

To begin with, our immune system is usually not as strong as it used to be when we were younger and the advice everywhere you turn, especially if you’re over the age of sixty, is to take all necessary precautions due to this fact. We’re already starting out at a disadvantage so we are urged to seriously do what’s needed to be done to protect ourselves.
We all have different beliefs in certain life situations but I’m of the opinion that we would choose the logical option (whatever that may be to each of us) to protect our own individual selves.
