RE: The End Of Covid-19 Saga Is Near

As someone who works with the immunocompromised, please may I implore everyone to continue to act with compassion for those who may not be in the same position as you. Not everyone will experience mild symptoms and get over it in two days. Many people, even with this latest "milder" strain, end up severely ill with complications ranging from long covid to hospitalisation, permanent disability and even death. Wearing a mask does not hurt anyone. It simply prevents the virus from spreading from one person to the next. It's especially helpful with people who may have contracted the virus but are unaware: eg asymptomatic, or are brushing it off as "just a cold." Please. Remember that it's not just about you. It is a very big picture indeed. I will continue to wear my mask in public regardless of whether the law is scrapped or not 🤒😢😷

That being said, the last two years have been extremely difficult psychologically for every single one of us. I wish and pray just as much as everyone that we can put this pandemic behind us for good. Let's just do it safely and considerately.
