I've always been told things stop being scary once you face them. I don't believe that's true. There are things that never get not scary enough. Covid is one of those things.

We keep hoping for things to change, that miraculously this will be the last lockdown and the pandemic will be over. We'll go back to days of not wearing masks and things will be as they were before March 2020, but we're in denial and we need to snap out of it. This isn't the time to be extremely optimistic, nor is it the time to dabble in the labels and controversies that seem to have plagued our minds.

I'm not a scientist, nor am I studying to become one, but from general observation and watered down explanations of actual scientific papers from my sister who is, in fact, a scientist, I can tell Covid-19 is stubborn and here to stay. It won't magically disappear until we play our parts. Wear masks, stay inside and if you qualify to register for the vaccine, GET VACCINATED.
