Shameless plug of a thing I wrote about the same essay. Might be useful for added context.

I wrote it before an English translation was published, so I called it "fatigue society", which I still think is a more appropriate term than burnout society.

(Knowing that the essay is more than a decade old should help explain the strong assertion right off the bat that we aren't living in a "viral" age.)
