articles are like "the economic cost of long covid is too high, we need a cure!!!"

i mean a cure would be rad but we already know how to prevent long covid:

1. vaccination
2. ventilation & filtration
3. masking

society is currently so disinterested in the ramifications of long covid we can't even be bothered to prevent it using cheap and effective methods

@eniko It's the same with the current climate emergency. People are suggesting shooting rockets full of tin-foil chaff into the air to deflect the sun's rays. Meanwhile, look how effectively the planet cooled during covid when capitalism had to slow down for a few months.

I think I see it, there need to be a way to profit, for it to be interesting for those with their hands on the levers of power.

Hmmm...
