Do you understand the difference between a novel virus and the flu?
> We have marvelous vaccines that knock Covid to the level of a cold or mild flu for most people in the “office worker” demographic.
And now we have omicron, which is still quite infectious in spite of the vaccines. Thankfully it seems less dangerous than delta. Who knows what the next variant will bring.
> Because part of saying “Covid isn’t going away ever” means “get on with your damn life”.
Part of “getting on with your damn life” includes accepting that there’s a new endemic virus that the population has no natural immunity to, and changing behavior appropriately.
Sorry, but time marches forward — 2019 is a thing of the past.
