Let's be clear. SARS-CoV-2 is an atrociously bad virus. It can damage any number of organ systems, increases risk for all kinds of illnesses, and is causing a mass disabling event. And that's just what we know about it so far. You do not want to get it, and if you've had it you don't want it again.

Unfortunately, leaders, public health officials, and the large majority of the population think it's over and have deemed continued mitigation measures to be unnecessary. The most vulnerable have no choice but to be very cautious and they are being left behind. Many others are doing their best in order to protect themselves and others, but are also in an impossible situation.
