1: Masks! that seems to work.
2: Physiotherapy? Yoga?
3: there are articles about rehabilitation centers for ex-covid patients, in europe + UK at least.

I'm talking about sustainable permanent changes. I like contactless takeout, like Little Caesar's pizza portal as one example.
2. Neither of those are for infections per se.
3. Thanks. I will look for such, but it probably sucks if the past 55 years of my life is anything to judge by.
Well in some Asian cultures it was already normalized to wear a mask when you have any kind of symptoms of anything contagious. I was hoping that convention would move west even before this pandemic happened -- so I hope it stays with us.
But since working form home, neither me, my wife, or any of my kids have gotten a cold which is kind of amazing.
Unless we live in a literal bubble with filtered air, we're going to be germy.
The safest way to not be germy is likely to live in a sunny dry place away from people but then it's usually hot and maybe amazon doesn't deliver.
I've never done that. I've always just gone to the store. I didn't even really think about it, like of course I'm not going to be wiping my nose and touching things, but I'm also not sanitizing my hands the instant I walk into a grocery story - something I now do every single time.
I do wonder what the effect would be of just having sick people wear masks when they go out?
Suffice it say that I don't agree with you. At all.
Maybe we'll replace masks by astronaut's helmets like in all some dystopia games, with lights inside to show our face like in SF movies (so they show the actor's face, glare be damned).
I keep wondering if there's any way to export those practices to the world at large but it seems extremely unlikely given the open and aggressive hostility I'm met with for any suggestion whatsoever that there might exist a better idea than masks.
People seem to treat masks like a plus 2 magic item in the game of Pandemic. Once they have one on, they think they are exempt from the need to keep their distance. They also tend to touch their face more, not less, because they fiddle with it etc.
I had some utter and complete asshole blow his nose under his mask standing next to me in a store. I think "don't blow your nose in a crowded public space" would be a vastly superior rule to "wear a mask."
