Go grocery shopping and spray down every item's surface area with disinfectant before putting it in the pantry. We all laugh now but this was serious business then and we've probably gotten too lax now in not keeping up with reasonable safety precautions. Aren't people still dying from COVID?

Yep, but we don't care any more, too inconvenient.

Where I am, 2022 was by far the deadliest year for Covid, more people died than in either 2020 or 2021. We just gave up. This year we stopped reporting numbers altogether, so we can only guess at how many we're losing. But it's definitely still here. It was a meme from Trump era, that there's not going to be any cases if we stop testing, but that is exactly what they did just a couple of years later, completely unironically and with a straight face.
