POSTCARDS FROM A PANDEMIC 4
People of the present day, I know you’re not reading this and that’s OK. This isn’t for you anyway. It’s for the people of the future. If you’re not from the future, stop reading this for at least 100 years. In the future, today’s pandemic will be seen through a different lens and these postcards will provide a glimpse into what life was like when the first of the 21st century’s pandemics emerged. As of 2022, humans have already spread the virus, SARS-CoV-2, to animals and made a permanent reservoir to keep reinfecting themselves and other animals. Big business and the politicians they own decided that the pandemic was over at the beginning of the third year even though it isn’t. There are more cases in places such as Hong Kong and the US now than there were in the first year of the pandemic. But bolstered by a false sense of security from the Omicron variant’s apparent mildness and the reduced death rates of the fully vaccinated, the money has decided that it’s time to reopen and live with the virus, regardless of the human cost. Are the worst variants yet to come? Will there be another huge surge in the coming months? We’ll find out. Happy Pandemic Year 3!
