    I wonder if people who think like you see the severity of this type of thinking.

    Are you aware that vulnerable people have to become hermits or risk their life when going in public.

    Do you understand the severity of cutting off this part of the population from public life? Do you understand the severity of potentially infecting a chronically ill person? They can die… and you’re okay?

    How?

    I know I’m personally affected by this problem. Does it have to be so personal to care about minimum protection?

        For real, it’s about wearing a piece of cloth on your face for a limited amount of time lmao.

        I did it for a twelve hour train ride with no great annoyance, doctors do it all the time, public transport workers do, people do it all the time.

        GROW THE FUCK UP.

      I wonder if people who think like you see the severity of this type of thinking.

      The ban has been lifted here except for hospitals in which I did wear a mask.
      The severity since omicron and vaccinations has gone down to flu-like levels.
      Every grandparent and sibling in my family has gotten it in the last few months, even though I never have.
      They told me it was a few days of flu.

      Are you aware that vulnerable people have to become hermits or risk their life when going in public.

      This includes the one step-grandfather who has lung and heart issues, so he was quite vulnerable.
      And I was told he had a few days of flu.
      I lived almost like a complete hermit for two years. I think that’s enough now.

      This was what my home looked like since late January to December 2020.

      When I was I stopped caring, I mean I’ve dropped the seriousness of it down from this level.

      Do you understand the severity of cutting off this part of the population from public life? Do you understand the severity of potentially infecting a chronically ill person? They can die… and you’re okay?

      I don’t live in the US where there’s no universal health care.
      We (still) have a good health care system here.

      How?

      Because the number of death has gone done in my nation by 90%, even though the curfew is gone and the masks are off.
      Our hospitals are able to take care of most of the patients.
      It’s now slightly more dangerous than the flu.

      I know I’m personally affected by this problem. Does it have to be so personal to care about minimum protection?

      No, I just calculate the risk and the risk simply has gone done to flu levels for my nation.
      Other things still occur that also have risk, including health care issues, and those are getting priority.

      What people aren’t taking seriously right now are the consequences of the Nord Stream pipe line being blown up and the gas/oil sanctions against Russia.
      It’s going to lead into a cascading effect in the EU similar to the Arab Spring, with complete overturns of governments, coups and even civil war, with the difference being that unlike the Arab nations, the EU could have stopped the US, but jumped ahead in front US in order outdo it’s own collapse.

      And a lot more people are going to die from this this year in Ukraine (due to the provoked war), and next year in the EU than COVID.
