A new COVID vaccine is due next month, but health experts and analysts say it is likely to be coolly received even as hospitalizations from "Eris", a variant of the Omicron form of the coronavirus, rise around the country.
How many of you lemmers are still wearing masks indoors? What’s the temperature of this community on the ongoing pandemic and the social murderous response by both parties since the dems took power?
I wear masks on public transport and when flying. Even without reading the latest research on long-term COVID impacts, the amount of people openly sneezing and coughing is enough to convince me to keep doing it.
I really only see people wear masks at the Asian market anymore. I always keep one on me and put it on if it’s crowded but tbh I’ve resigned to being driven to early grave by everyone that treats it like a joke. Already been seriously infected with it twice in the past year, and on top of my hypertension and family history of heart disease and stroking out at 40, I’ll be lucky to see another 10-15 years.
None at all in my upstate, NY area. We ditched them a long time ago. They are useless anyways. There is no pandemic and really wasn’t one ever. We all got fleeced. Never again.

We still wear masks in indoor crowded places (movies, concerts, malls, grocery stores).

In my country only ones wearing masks are Japanese tourists. No one gives a shit anymore and that is actually quite nice.
Nope, they’re not a thing in the UK at all anymore. Even as someone who was supportive of most measures I’m glad of it.
I was going to use lemmyngs but I didn’t like the connotation in this context

Lemme guess: the extreme drop in life expectancy since the ‘nothing’ started is because of the vaccines that came out a year into the trend?
Lot of committed actors to just walk out of their lives and pretend to be dead. Real expensive housing them.
