I know, most of the perished were over 50, clinically overweight, or had rare, dreadful diseases like high blood pressure... so they mostly don't count as actual deaths. None of them could have lived a life worth anything to us anyhow.

It's crazy to back to the beginning of pandemic and think "this is where we ended up".
The politicians on the right that turned this into something political, quite literally, have hundreds of thousands of deaths on their hands.
We're still wearing masks at the hospital I work at although it sounds like that will be lifted in the early spring except in patient areas. I'm guessing masks in patient areas will be a permanent change from this.
