I feel like they know that they can't make people care for covid ever again. We're not better prepared if something like this happens again, quite the opposite, the next pandemic is gonna me a grade a shitshow. I work for a lot of different people, and a lot of them still can't wait to tell me their take on covid, and pretty much all of them are in agreement that they would never get vaccinated again.

Best you can hope for is that it is far into the future that a new set of idiots or otherwise gets a crack at it.

Yeah. We joked about the dumb trope where the cheerleader goes down into the dark spooky basement to check on that weird sound with a dodgy flashlight, but then we discovered we're all apparently the cheerleader.

Wear this face diaper, respect everyone's personal space and wash your hands properly? We learned this when our TV-nannies showed us MASH and stElsewhere and Scrubs. Too much for us to commit to, though, as if an entire super-nation doesn't do it every winter.
