katharineWithout saying “endemic” or “but it’s mild now” explain how this is “post-Covid” or in any way acceptable.
Oh, no. You’re going to say “it’s never going away and we just have to live with it,” aren’t you? Do you want to be sent links to Long Covid studies and sites everyday for the foreseeable future as a reminder that by trying to absolve yourself of virus mitigation responsibility, yes, for millions of people, Covid never goes away and they just have to live with the nasty souvenirs from an infection?
Niko Trimmel@thatkatharine I'm not saying people have to live with the repercussions of an illness, but what could be done to prevent a sickness like Covid or other cyclic flu to do its cycles? You can mask up, you can keep your distance, but you can't keep something like that from spreading. It would be a Don Quijote fight
RethinkJeff@nitrml Everyone masking and social distancing was so effective we eliminated certain strains of the flu and the common cold. It works so incredibly well, people don't think COVID is that big of a deal.
