To be fair, what even is the fucking point of reporting it anymore? We saw what ended up happening with covid, where even otherwise right-minded people started having tantrums about masks and vaccines. The vast majority of people are not going to take precautions with a new pandemic, I half expect the right wingers to start deliberately sneezing in each others faces and asking if we’re triggered by it. We’re screwed if another pandemic happens, and reporting on it won’t even remotely change that, as a species overall we just be too stupid to survive
The US is huge, and that kind of attitude will (for the most part) only be present in certain areas of the country. It’s best that those places are avoided.
I can’t speak for Europe proper (relatively sane Europe), here in the UK I fully expect most of that same kind of behaviour. Probably not to the same extent as the US but it’ll be bad
You know I’m all about making sure my country’s lies are out in the open but man everyone everywhere I live in USA was masked up minus the couple of idiots that exist in every country. Y’all I’m mad at this shit that’s going on too but this statement is a false blanket statement.
I would at least like to know if it’s a problem so I can take appropriate personal precautions. Sure I don’t need a running death count every day like we had during Covid but just like “this thing is out there, here’s what you can do”

Yes, when I visited the USA during COVID people actively got into my face and coughed at my face. Intentionally, to be clear.
This was out in public in places like supermarkets.
Absolutely abhorrent people. I’m glad I’m back in Europe for the next pandemic, much safer.
Literally never had this happen and I live in a densely populated city in Texas.
Vast majority of people masked without issue

people speak English and thus the propaganda naturally leaks across the pond I’m afraid.
Yep, although I take some slight comfort that the whole “deep state” thing doesn’t seem to have found much of a foothold here (yet?)
Well, yeah, the reptilians in Buckingham Palace would never let the Deep State get any real power
Good old fashioned British conspiracy theories, none of this foreign muck - luv me reptilian royal family, 'ate the deep state, simple as

I think it varied wildly by location.
