I love living in a society where I am always one of the few people actually wearing a mask in public indoor spaces, which is the most common sense thing to do during the rapid spread of a debilitating, deadly virus, yet I am constantly questioning my own sanity since most everyone else no longer gives a fuck about taking any precautions.
The widespread apathy to COVID and its millions of victims is killing me and making me depressed like nothing else ever has. :doomjak: As well as the ignorance/hubris in assuming that just because you’re healthy now means you always will be, even after repeated COVID infections.
I’m confused and don’t understand how this imprinting phenomenon would be a problem exclusive to the COVID vaccines. Aren’t the newest variants vastly evolved from the original variants most people would have originally gotten exposed to if they didn’t receive a vaccine first? Or does it have to do with vaccines not containing the live virus?
And I’m also struggling to weigh that against how unvaccinated people have historically had much worse health outcomes to date than those vaccinated.
Even if it was just the flu! We could wipe the flu out in a few years if we all just masked up during flue season.
