VeeRatI hear that 2020 was difficult and traumatic for a lot of people. But for me, and I suspect for many of us who are still Covid-cautious, this year has been the most difficult year yet.
Not only are few people still wearing masks, but mask bans are now happening. Public areas are more and more dangerous, and mask-wearers are now being viewed as criminals.
Family are less and less tolerant of what they now view as subversive behavior from those of us who don’t want to gather together without mitigations.
As more years pass, waiting on medical care becomes impossible, and the likelihood of needing to take the major risk of visiting medical, dental, eye care and other facilities becomes greater. And now with the added risk of even healthcare providers not masking.
This is the hardest year by far. My patience for those talking about the trauma of 2020 has waned.
