So, I'm just going to be sure I have this straight.

Back in 2019-2020, when #covid19 first burst onto the scene, nobody had any idea what we were dealing with. Out of an abundance of caution people were urged to stay at home, and keep away from other people.

In the almost-four years since then, we have learned exactly what we are dealing with - a disease never dealt with before on this level, that attacks and destroys multiple systems of the body, leaves many people disabled/bedridden, or with any of a huge number of chronic conditions.

It attacks the heart and brains of everyone infected (to varying degrees), and confers no long lasting immunity against future infections (which tend to get worse each time).

But with all that knowledge, we've now dropped any semblance of protection, and actively discourage masking, isolation and cleaning the air.

... Do I have this right?

@Juicyfranck

To be fair, you do seem to be missing the whole vaccine, booster etc.

Here in Santa Clara County (part of the San Francisco Bay Area), 88% have both shots and 35% have the booster.

7 day average of new cases is 71....down from 6,815 in January 2022.

Surely most cities in Canada are similar?

(I have a total of four covid shots.)

We can't maintain lockdown forever....at some point you have to admit it's reasonably well contained. πŸ˜€

@neutrino78x

What do you mean "we can't maintain lockdown forever"? Are you "locked down" in some way?
