what has changed since 2020 and 2021, exactly? there's no cure, there is no permanent vaccine, and I doubt that even twitter neurotics who had two syringes in their handles when COVID was le current thing bother getting their bi-weekly booster, which means virtually all of us are unvaccinated again.

and yet the world keeps spinning. does that not suggest that the detractors were right all along?

we got a new current thing for the media and twitter checkmarks to yell about, and COVID quickly ceased to be a problem - less than three months after "winter of severe illness and death" promised by the white house in december 2021.
