[quote=Anonymous]The argument that "well we never took precautions for the flu" is such an interesting one to me. We, as a society, just decided NOT to care that 30,000 people a year died of a virus. It's not that we haven't had the tools to stop flu in previous years, just no one cared enough so it never had momentum. I will agree that Covid is coming from the other perspective, where there is almost NO tolernace for it. But as a decent and humane society moving forward, finding a way to navigate both viruses in a way that doesn't cost tens of thousands of people to die seems like the best way forward. Treating Covid like the flu is not a good idea because we have in the past been VERY callous about how flu kills people. Perhaps everyone visiting a long term care facility or hospital should have to prove they are vaccinated for flu, or taken a negative flu test. Imagine.[/quote]
