‘I’m done with COVID’ is easier said than done

The audience applauded wildly as the opinion writer and Substack star complained that she had diligently followed public-health measures early on in the pandemic, and it all seems to have been in vain.

Mask-wearing and vaccination are not mandated, except in rare circumstances; in states such as Florida, you can actually befor promoting public-health measures. People are travelling freely. Most kids are in school. Restaurants and bars are open, and 70,000 people can attend a football game. Of course, we all want COVID-19 to be done, and the sooner the better. Just like we want a trifecta of lower taxes, less government intrusion in our lives and more public services.where fictional Democratic U.S. president Josiah Bartlet is debating his Republican opponent Robert Ritchie. The conservative politician complains that taxes are too high and vows to cut them because the “American people know how to spend their money better than the federal government does.

In other words, beyond willful blindness and magical thinking, what exactly do you propose we do about the pandemic? Uttering “I’m done with COVID” as a mantra won’t stop the virus from spreading and mutating. It won’t end the threat of infection, especially to frail elders and other medically fragile citizens. It won’t free up surgical suites and hospital beds for hip replacements and treatment of cancer patients. It won’t get sick workers suddenly back on the job, diligently teaching children or stacking store shelves.

Only because some people have been radicalized and are convinced they’ll end up in the hospital if they get it. The fear was developed over 2 years, it’s going to take a minute to undue that. Hope is stronger than fear though!!
