Boost (Mastodon): So much Covid in my feed again today. I've been thinking about the 😬 "Learn to live with Covid" public health messaging again. It could have meant "Learn to live with masking, frequent vaccination updates, virtual & outdoor events, and new ventilation requirements for indoors." Instead, the vast majority chose "Learn to live with everyone getting sick all the time, and some people not getting better, causing a lower life expectancy and 1% of the population becoming disabled each year." — Amelia Bellamy-Royds :progress: (@AmeliasBrain@mstdn.ca)
