It will never cease to amaze me how much death & disability people have been willing to accept, downplay and normalize just so they don’t have to adjust their way of life.

As Julia points out - Covid lulls are being bought by mass infection NOT by sound public health policy & effective mitigations. Mass infection means many dead & even more disabled and isn’t something that should be celebrated.

We could do so much more to control the spread of this disease. We’ve learned so much in the last 4 years and we know what works - but we need to push governments & public health to actually do it. We need to be honest with ourselves about what these lulls really mean & demand better from those in power.

We also need to push back against the constant removal of tools we had to address the COVID pandemic. We are literally going backwards. Tests & treatments are nearly impossible to access, booster uptake at an all time low, little to no reporting of hospitalizations, cases & deaths and now in North Carolina a bill to make masking illegal.

Covid is airborne. We all share the air. We need to care about the air we share and we will all be much healthier.
