My husband and I began our voluntary COVID lockdown three years ago as well, the same night that our neighbors invited us out to dinner, an invitation that we declined. I am often the only person still wearing a mask in a meeting or in a public indoor space. Everyone around me, with few exceptions, seems to believe that COVID has been eradicated entirely.
@cassandra17lina My mask is my permanent clothing accessory. At least, for the foreseeable eternity...the attitude among the more lax is that COVID has evolved into an endemic range, no more of a problem than regular flu. I think I'll take my cues from the medical professionals who say it is still a much higher risk of harm. We still don't know enough about "long COVID" and what physical challenges await those who have it.
