Oh but they will lol
I came here to say this, but you said it better:-).
This feels like a good spot to remind folks that you can get free at-home covid tests from covid.gov.
If you haven’t gotten one in a bit, covid vaccines are also free in the US, either through your health insurance or through the Bridge Access Program.
If you haven’t gotten one in a bit
I wish guidance on when to get a booster shot was more prevalent. I remember them pushing the first 3 rounds at various intervals, but it wasn’t too difficult to follow if you were paying attention. Now it’s just “get your COVID shot”, but little-to-no mention of how often.
I know it’s complicated, depending on if you’ve been vaccinated before, and which version(s) you got. It seems that, assuming you’re an adult who has been vaccinated up to this point, it’s now just an annual shot like the flu, but the CDC page mentions “the updated shot” with a long list of notes about when various versions were updated. It would be nice if it was just “if your last vaccination was more than X months ago, it’s time for another”.
I guess, if you have questions, the general advice of “talk to your doctor” applies.
Dang if only we took it more seriously back when it started when that other guy was president. Probably would’ve stopped it mutating as much. Hmmmm
I agree with you completely, but that doesn’t exempt the current administration from doing more about it. And I don’t mean that as a both-sideism, I just mean that it’s not unhealthy to criticize and encourage the (less shitty) side you are on to be even less shitty.

That’s what we call Beggaring the Question.

People are done with COVID. Declare victory and move on. I was at an event at a local library recently. About 20% were using masks including me. Most people are either stupid or do not care or some combination of the two.
Same over Christmas. We had at least 4 people get COVID one quite severely. Same lack of care. My wife had a hard time getting an urgent care appointment for other reasons too over the holidays just because of all of this. I have still avoided COVID, RSV, and the flu myself but I take steps.
