Tim Harford Podcast
I've been listening to a new series of cautionary tales that I love from Tim Harford.

And now with people being vaccinated, that's a perception that they are safer, which may or may not be true. It's true on generalised statistics, but as an individual, you still may get a bad dose of COVID.
