This is insane. There are lots of clear macroeconomic reasons why fewer people are working predominantly menial jobs. "Long covid" is a ridiculous excuse and it's terrifying that this is getting actual serious press. I assume it's basically political cover to try and provide an alternate and politically friendly explanation vs how the slide towards a government-money-centric economy has created worker "shortages". But it's insane.
