Blowing up planets in the habitable zone of a star is stupidly wasteful.
If you have a long time before you need the planet for your own uses, throw lots of cheap rocks. You take out the life that is there, and after things settle and cool, it's ready for what you want to put on it.
If you need that planet in less than a generation, but a few years is fine, you can select from options like biological warfare, changing the chemistry of the planet with carefully selected impactors, or using large reflectors to increase the temperature of the environment for a while to kill off the pesky native infestation.
If you need the planet quickly, inciting internal political and military action is cheaper and faster, but can be unpredictable, forcing you to more extreme methods.

I am pharmaceutically immuno-compromised (to slow down the damage from a genetic auto-immune disease) so as soon as the news said this virus was in the US, I got masks and wore them, and stayed the heck away from people whenever possible. I didn't need the CDC or a health department to tell me this because I paid attention to how Asia adjusted to SARS and the avian flu. I quickly figured out how best to fit the mask to reduce leakage, about how many hours I could get out of a mask, and to always have a spare handy in case an elastic broke.
Even though I have asthma and COPD and the mask makes breathing truly suck, I wear it.

I stopped listening to Sweet Potato Trump for advice about fifteen years ago, and of all of those around him, I partially trust Fauci. The rest could tell me water is wet and I'd do science to check their facts.

I am infuriated by some of the people I see. The "free the nose" mask wearers who only cover their mouths, the "keep my beard warm" people who wear the mask on their chin, leaving the nose and mouth exposed, and the worst of all... Those who shop without a mask at all, even when there are signs posted, an employee handing out FREE masks at the door, and all of the other shoppers wearing masks around them.
