A group of U.S. researchers has modelled where society’s current path — an unmitigated spread of COVID — would lead. They concluded that unfettered transmission could result in death tolls exceeding 100,000 a year in the U.S. alone. “Endemicity is not a victory,” they added.

There was one post several days ago now, and it wasn't even about minimizing covid.
There were a couple and... yes it was.
The site is overwhelmingly covid-conscious. Equating a "touch grass" post with "The site is majority let it rip" or something is silly.
Literally no one said this, who are you talking to?
Now you're just being silly, talking about things I haven't said.
And the post I'm thinking about cast undeserved doubts on immune damage from COVID.
We could very well be thinking of 2 different posts.
I'm just tired of people complaining about the one I'm thinking of and making it a bigger deal than it was.
Edit: For context, I meant this post
Oh yeah that post is more or less fine. IMO people are sometimes getting stuck in a dichotomous way of thinking: either be a 100% hermit or hey just hang out like whatever with no mask. In the latter case they might give up on masks and visit people, become a regular at indoor bars, etc etc.
There's a reasonable middle ground of still seeing people but being careful with masking and limiting exposure and so on. I don't think folks consider it enough in these convos.
