Why have you given up on fighting #COVID out there?
Giving up means potentially watching those you love suffer when the #sars2 finds them.
Giving up means they look on as your disabled or killed.
Those things will be worse than any effort or energy expended now to resist or push back & demand better.
In the end, I believe my only regret is going to be that I didn't do enough. It's why I can't just accept all this. I don't want my children to live through deadly hyper mutated sars2 variants.
"You do you" broke me just like it broke the societal contract. I, honestly, assumed that my experiences during the pandemic were unusual and therefore I was the edge case. Even realizing over time that I'm not, it's tacit approval by the governments of the world to be as selfish and self serving as you wish.
I assume at this point there's two likely outcomes. One, some sort of horribly tragic societal bottoming out is going to have to happen before things get better. Two, some scientific breakthrough(s) changes the reality on the ground enough that the scenario completely changes.
Personally, I'm just biding my time making sure myself and my family get infected as little as humanly possible until one of them happens.
