Dispensaries deliver. You can also order CBD online, I highly recommend Lazarus Naturals.

Your internal dilemma seems self imposed. Even if it provides you a placebo effect, so what? And, look, triple vaccinated doesn’t mean much as it relates to catching or transmission of omnicron. Clearly it will protect you from dying but I know dozens of triple vaccinated people that had covid over the past couple weeks. You seem to understand this, which is why you are even considering the CBD. So order it online. Literally no reason not to if it will give you peace of mind.

The systemic risk being, if people trust CBD is protecting them, then they may decrease other mitigations.

Ie a false sense of security

The parent comment wasn't talking about systemic risk, but personal: anybody who's able to grok the parent comment's point about this potentially not providing any incremental safety is capable of understanding that it doesn't warrant relaxing other constraints.

Ie,there's an easy path here to reduce your likely risk by applying this potential mitigation without changing anything else. The fact that there are people too dumb to take this option (which I agree with you about) has no bearing on an individual's decision to do so.
