> Your desire to return to "normal" is counterproductive to preventing the spread of contagious disease. A lot of the country has already turned back to normal, and it shows in the fact that we have 140k cases a day and thousands of deaths per day. When 9/11 happened, we vowed to "never forget", but with Covid, it seems that self-induced Amnesia is what people are actually fighting for.
Which reminds me of this article: https://www.inverse.com/mind-body/1918-pandemic-compared-to-covid-19 https://www.inverse.com/mind-body/1918-pandemic-compared-to-...
