Hahaha, ‘infrastructure’ was not the best word to choose. We do have many testing centers from both the government and private companies, as well as vaccination facilities. But what I meant to say rather than ‘infrastructure’ was the collection of goods and services related to testing, hygiene, vaccination, compliance of businesses with COVID-related policies, etc. I will show a bit of my ignorance by admitting that I don’t what the correct word is to describe that. “COVID economy”?
What I was trying to get at is a series of questions. Your voice has rung out with a chorus of other voices, telling us that covid isn’t that bad, we can just forget about it. But logic dictates that I ask, who benefits from putting it out of mind and forgetting about it? Not the millions of dead. Not my friends and family struggling through long covid symptoms. Not me if I catch it and have to take time off work. The capitalist death cult definitely seems to think they benefit off forgetting it though.
Then I have even more questions. I live in one of the wealthiest nations in the world, and our response to the crisis was abysmal, eventually bordering on non-existent. We dropped the ball a long time ago, why this insistence on forgetting that it is/was possible to NOT condemn millions to death and suffering so that wealthy people’s wealth and power machines could keep going ‘brrrrrr?’ Will we learn anything from this mass casualty event? Or just keep sacrificing blood and bodies to Mammon?
