They're not being forgotten, they're being willfully ignored and actively resisted by people willing to sacrifice other people's lives for their personal monetary gain.

Yeah they were never learned to begin with.

That's my biggest takeaway

If the people resisting them were somehow gaining from it, I could understand, even if I don't agree, but there are way too many people who resist just because they saw something on social media, and are too stupid and selfish to take the time to think it through.

I remember the chin diapers and people walking around with them on their chins. Lols.

I still see them in the street today, proudly holding up their chins, it's completely absurd.

More concerning is the medical professionals who make a note in your medical file because they couldn't see my face because of a mask and noting that they didn't see any evidence of respiratory distress.

As if catching COVID for the first time over Christmas a few months ago now wasn't enough proof that it's still doing the rounds and that until then my mask regime had been 100% successful.
