For 10 years, Americans have had access to flu shots that protect against four strains of the virus: two A strains and two B strains. Starting this fall, however, all the flu shots distributed in the United States will contain only three strains, and the change happened in part because of Covid-19.
What do you mean by that? Social distancing is mostly what keeps these diseases at bay. But there’s an argument that social distancing comes with a hefty cost as we are a social species.
There’s a more rational problem than seeing people at your will. It’s seeing people as you must. I had minor panic attacks with struggles to breath over commuting to work in overfilled busses, working around many people, because I didn’t have a pleasure to work from home at all although I could, easily, without a problem. I’m fine with living in a solitary confinement with the internet connected anonymously - I’m this weird, yeah - but my boss said no. And I was potentially infected and spread this shit to other people who probably got ill or died. I’m very adjusted to social distancing, but I and many had no chance for that.

Sure, that’s a valid critique of working conditions in our society. There’s a lot to be said and hopefully done about that.
