If someone asks you in 25 years from now what the COVID pandemic was like...

At first it created a sense of community and everyone tried to help each other make the best of it. But after only a few weeks people got tired of that and became more selfish than ever, or at least more open about that. The start showed that it's possible to make everything accessible to chronically ill people, but the day the healthy population didn't need things to be available at home, the disabled were excluded again, even more than before, because it was still considered normal to not want to see them participate in society.

A rather nasty bug went round which people had little immunity to do a lot if people caught it and if they were elderly they sometimes died from it. Governments rather overreacted due to panic.

Something that could've been effectively eliminated in two months or so just like its first version (SARS-1) but that we've decided to turn into an endemic, multi-year disaster because people who eat crayons for breakfast couldn't be arsed with doing the bare minimum like wearing a facemask.

@DressyAlex As I recall the responsible drivers seemed to be subject to the lockdowns where I was (and still am). That left the "Fast and Furious" bunch to have free reign on the highways.

The first time I didn't know I had it. The second time I had a head cold for two days.

That's how I'll sum it up.

We were all in timeout. What a bonding experience

A 3 day flu

All we had to do was stay home and wear a mask, but that proved impossible for some people. It could have been over in a month if some selfish people followed rules for a change.

it was like the AIDs scare of the 80s but
without the homphobia
and it only lasted a year or two
that and people were demanding a vaccine and didn't politicize it.

Lonely, I was actually just widowed

it was an IQ test.. and many failed.

So much happened and we just never revisited it.lol like we need to sit down as a country and break it down with a therapist.

Traffic was really light

That was the time when the medical industry realy showed themselves.

When grown adults came up with all sorts of excuses and conspiracy to not wear a mask even though medical professionals do so without issues for established reasons

just show them the video

I won't. That's what Google is for.

Shameful behaviour online really

Why do they need to know it’s all in the past , quit being dramatic

we would be due for another pandemic before that

It was one of many controversies created to keep people in one of two camps and hating the other

Like we did with NATO, the climate change problems and inequality, we are dysfunctional to protect the oligarchy. Be proud. It was 1917 and the USA spreading flu to kill socialism all over again!

A victory of the "experts", who of course were not expert at all

Inconvenient. Unless your government was criminally negligent..😷

If someone with BPD/NPD is in your life in any capacity, remove them from your life!

It was bs, governmental propaganda and population control.. nothing more; a governmental endorsed social scam
