And this is why the pandemic never ends. We celebrate the wrong things. We celebrate the removal of our protections against Covid, rather than the elimination of infections. Eliminating infections ends the pandemic. Eliminating public health measures just increases infections, and prolongs the pandemic. We’re going through another idiot ‘celebration’ phase right now, we don’t even notice we’re doing it I think. We’re literally a society of teenagers, celebrating not being grounded any more.
