Now we depend on all of us coming to our senses to survive this thing Am I missing something? It seems to be clear for well over a year that "this thing" is not some existential threat that threatens our very survival. Why are people talking as if it is, and seeking to craft policy as if it is?

Perhaps not my survival, or your survival, but a bunch of countries' health systems have collapsed as part of this pandemic, which has definitely lead to excess deaths. Personally, I believe that the global excess deaths figures will be bigger this year than last, due to all the developing world where vaccines are not available.
