Comment on There should be a term for people who never really returned from the pandemic's social isolation
corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 7 hours agoCoronavirus is here to stay now, just like the flu.
By ‘the flu’, do you mean that virus where one entire strain was eradicated by masking and distancing over the winter?
THAT flu? The one with the strain that died out after trivial effort? Do you want to use it as an example of some perennial curse, or are you saying that we can eradicate covid again with similarly trivial effort?

It’s pretty clear that they meant “a constant factor in our daily lives”, you really don’t need to be this hostile.

I think their point is that, with effort, it can be become a thing of the past.
However, so many are unwilling to put forth the effort because it’s either too inconvenient or they’ve been brainwashed into believing it’s a hoax.
