What would collective acts of grief look like? Entire processions marching in black? Vigils for those that died of covid? Twitter bots listing their bios and faces for each victim.
We can write entire books on the victims of 9/11 but we have the equivalent of 1 9/11 in victims every month or so and we shrug our shoulders.
I'd imagine it as a form of sick out where workers go on a soft strike until the conditions that caused these situations are resolved.
This will never happen in America, of course.

Fair enough. Part of my reasoning why we wouldn't see this kind of movement, though, is how easily americans accepted mass death from COVID. This is anecdotal, obviously, but my entire workplace and most of my social circle have believed that the pandemic is over since about June.
