That's the same shit that businesses were pushing last time because they didn't want to close for a few months, ended up making everything worse.
I know I am a bit biased here because I didn't get sick and didn't really try that hard to avoid it either. I only wore a mask when I had to, I went to bars with friends, really didn't take any extra precautions, and I washed my hands normally. If I got covid I didn't notice it.
Personally I would hate if we went into lockdown again, but again, I didn't get sick, the worst I felt was when I got the vaccine.
