THIS is the defeatist attitude, not the other way around. I am not willing to get lackluster boosters every 6 months - leaky vaccines that likely caused omicron and that have the highest rate of VAERS reports ever. Are people really this misinformed?

Wait a minute. How does a vaccine cause a virus?

I do agree with you about that being a defeatist attitude.

As someone who is hard of hearing I can't wait for people to stop wearing masks.

On the other hand, I wish we knew more how this is transmitted. People eating indoors isn't the main vector of transmission. And masks don't help much either. And eventually getting a booster every 6 months won't do much either

You can obviously do whatever you want to do. Understand you're in a miniscule minority however.

I agree with all these points. Wearing masks is now normalized so the likelihood of getting flu is also greatly reduced. Also, the disgusting handshaking habit is gone as well. Many wins.

Touching another human’s hand is disgusting? This type of fear may be the worst form of “long covid” symptoms to develop from this disease.

Handshaking isn't gone.

Have fun with that. I'm sure Pfizer has your best interests at heart.
