I'm literally touching grass while writing this
I wish the "touch grass" thought terminating cliche could be retired; it seems to be the go-to for "normalcy" obsessed treatbrains that want to go back to brunch with no restrictions.
That’s the thing. It isn’t.
you mean, science?
No, but the criteria are determined by science. You should check it out, that science stuff is real neat if you haven't heard of it before.
A perpetual crisis is like a perpetual revolution, they are both temporary.
Once again we see the abled throwing tantrums over the idea of having to suffer a mild discomfort so as to protect the lives of the disabled, especially the immunocompromised.
I have an aunt whose immune system has to be medicated into nonexistence at all times so it doesn't wreck her body, and she is still fucked up from covid, months after "getting over" it and with multiple vaccine shots beforehand. How many people have you killed or left permanently ill, and never realised, in your selfish ignorance?
If there were any divine justice in this world, idiots like you would be smote with horrible autoimmune diseases or total organ failure, forced to go on anti-rejection drugs for the rest of your lives, and live with the same fear you force on others, the fear that any "harmless" disease could be the death of you.
People exist outside of your suburban bubble, you laughably sheltered liberal ghoul.
Out of nowhere you just voluntarily announced you're a
style New Atheist with all the baggage of unearned arrogance that comes with. 
Are you stupid?
Your aunt would have to protect herself covid or no covid. Do you think microorganisms only appeared in the last 5 years?
Your last paragraph shows your true self and how "caring" you truly are.
Protecting other people from death and disability is authoritarian.
Guy there are better vaccines and anti-virals out there. Literally NO ONE is asking you to "mask forever".
