Many people are desperately afraid of “forever masking.”
I'm afraid of #COVID19 remaining a top five cause of death indefinitely.
I'm scared COVID will leave billions with lasting damage to their heart, brains, and immune systems.
I'm frightened that children infected three, four or nine times will have lifelong health issues.
I'm worried that a rapidly mutating virus could yet spin off a deadly new variant.
Why is it so hard to do something so simple to possibly save a life? #WearAMask
A child born today, with today's lack of precautions in school and daycare would have to be expected to contract COVID upwards of 40 times by college, right? I don't see how that child survives that.
Seems like a lot of people are just waiting for the magic science pill that makes it all go away....which is really no different than people who are "concerned" about climate change but believe scientists will solve the problem any minute now without them having to do anything. Scientific wishful thinking.
@BE Honestly, I wish I could say that was exaggerated, but unless we develop better vaccines, COVID stops mutating, we adopt safer practices, or immunity starts miraculously remaining stable, you're right--that could well happen. I tell people even if COVID was "just" the flu (and it's not), no one could get the flu two or three times a year indefinitely without it adversely impacting their health and quality of life.
Couldn't be more spot on. I say that to people all the time, too!
