Yeah, for real. Statists and tyrants love the idea of never going back to normal. They've never had this much power over individuals and businesses.

As long as any concert, large public gathering, or whatever else you want to go to inevitably results in the deaths of dozens of individuals, those events won't be going on as normal, no matter how deep you stick your head in the sand.

Are we talking about the same virus, the one with a death rate far below 1%? The one that's almost completely harmless to everyone who wasn't severly ill and going to die soon to begin with? The one that many people are immune to already thanks to cross-immunity?

In a community near me, a church had a revival. Estimated 100 infected from 175 in attendance. 3 members of the congregation have died so far.
Now, if you had large events with mostly young people, you probably wouldn't have as many direct deaths. But those young people probably have older family at home.

There are no facts I'm aware of the back this up. Existence of a comorbidity is not a severe illness.

Not sure what you're talking about, but we're talking about the virus that killed a million people in nine months as of October and left millions more with lifelong medical conditions.

Ironically this unwillingness to accept that things have changed forever (forever here meaning next 2-3 years atleast) is exactly what the article talks about. The sooner you accept this the easier it will be to continue with life.

Are you trying to push people to suicide? Because I'm not going to endure this hell for years.

You are far stronger than you think you are.
Willing to accept a temporary inconvenience during an emergency, but emergencies do end. Life is 100% deadly, people need to come to terms with that.
