Hospitalizations doubled in MA and current CDC risk level is “medium” with proposed measures being talk to your doctor about wearing a mask if you’re immunocompromised
Nobody could have foreseen this
The vast majority of people fall into two camps at this point. The first have been told that covid is over by the alleged experts and the media, so as far as they're concerned, covid is over. In my experience, they were already tired of masking, so there's also a measure of willing disbelief.
The second camp are hogs who have been opposed to every anti-covid measure since the start.
As an anecdotal example, I know exactly 2 people (other than myself) who are still taking covid seriously. None of my coworkers or family give a shit, and neither do most of my friends.
"and even if i do get it, it's basically just the common cold right"
