This foolish article might as well be titled "Infectious diseases continue to kill many people as they always have" These sorts of things are a fact of life in our world, and unless there are very specific, concrete reasons for taking special measures during specific time frames (as could be perhaps justified for COVID during a certain time), nothing except for "moving on" can be asked of society. The human world literally has no other choice, and to insist on draconian disease control measures just because hundreds a day die of X or Y infectious agent is absurd when you simply understand that many, many people have always died daily from preventable infectious vectors. At this point, COVID is so little different from certain other previously existent viruses that no special measures are justified anymore. Furthermore, those that were applied already with many still unexplored social and health consequences not only worked only ambiguously at best, they also should have been carefully examined before being pushed even further for any reason. I'm not sure of the quoted doctor's agenda (aside from maybe some self-serving free media publicity by playing into that same media's need for fear-clicks) but he's proposing an absurdity through emotional appeals that he himself should know to be untenable for a functional world.
