An honest public health message would look something like...
"we've learned a lot about this virus over the last two years. We know it can be deadly. We know there are populations more vulnerable than others. We know the best way to protect yourself is having a healthy diet, exercise and weight. We've developed vaccines that, while they don't stop you from getting the virus, they can significantly reduce your risk of illness. If you can't get vaccinated or choose not to, we know your odds of surviving the virus are high, and in rare cases that you get very sick, we have developed tremendous drug treatments to fight off infections.
Get vaccinated if you can. Always try to improve your diet and exercise habits. Stay home if you are showing symptoms. But rest assured that you can live your life without fear. "
