What are her needs? To spread covid to her husband and child and everyone around her so that she can take a trip to Dubai? Having to be covid cautious in the year 2024 when most of the world has gone "back to normal" is something a lot of people are dealing with right now, many with far less resources and far less ability than this woman. These people are disabled, immunocompromised, many have long covid - they are doing this out of necessity. So, I'm sorry, I have very little sympathy for this woman. I'm not saying it's an easy, simple thing to do, to remain covid cautious in the year 2024, but if she won't take covid precautions to protect herself and her child, she should at least have solidarity with her husband and the many like him. Instead she wants to meet in the middle, as if her needs are in any way comparable to his. One person wants to go to Dubai, the other person wants to not die.
I don't want to chalk all her needs up to "a trip to Dubai" though. She does have valid needs, you're right, remaining covid cautious these days is very difficult. One current running through this article I think is the need for social interaction. But throughout this article she desires to fulfill those needs by kicking those who have already been abandoned by our public institutions; by forcing her husband into dangerous situations and really in effect by joining with bourgeois interests in dismantling public health and letting a large part of the world just whither away and die as they succumb to this virus. What she needs to do is realize the only way she can fulfill her needs is through solidarity with her husband and the disabled and immunocompromised; by fighting for public health and a world where these people are not abandoned.
