It's the everyday activity that's actually spreading the ****.
I went through a scare when I was in the program and people started getting it left and right. And half the **** they started doing to fight it was pointless and performative as well. Maybe that's made me somewhat jaded towards the whole ordeal.

That's a false justification. Things like getting food are essential; the fact that many people have this 'nah it won't make a difference if I have one family dinner' mentality adds up and is the cause that things don't work.
I mean, I'm not judging about you wanting to be with your family. I've been adhering to the corona rules well while I'm here in England, but I'll be flying to Holland in December, and I did the same in the summer. It's just that pretending it isn't bad corona wise makes no sense.
