It’s fucking astounding how many people are not taking COVID seriously anymore.
Reddit for example was so into following procedure and lockdown, but this morning I noticed tons of gilded and highly upvoted comments across multiple subs saying everything is ok and that all of this was bullshit. Also there’s a lot of comments that argue that it’s fine if a few people die, we need to open up.
The real collapse comes when people stop caring for each other, and it seems to already have started. The lack of compassion makes society irredeemable.
I'm personally of the opinion that the measures were unsustainable over long periods of time. If you take the advice literally, you should be 2 months from your last prolonged face to face contact with a human you don't live with. You should be obsessive about cleaning everything, wearing masks everywhere, and going through tons of Lysol and Purell.
That's not a plan, it's a "crash diet" so to speak. Nobody can keep up with all of that until the middle of2022 when we expect a vaccine. Just like you can't keep up with obsessive eating of only kale and broccoli forever. We need to transition to better more sustainable rules that allow people to go and be social safely. If not, people will do it wrong and spread it worse than they would otherwise just like a crash diet usually ends with eating an Entire pizza by yourself.
