what's happening with south korea and covid? And why is the kpop music industry acting like it's not happening?

a lot less harmless and yeah basically people dont care about being infected much anymore

soon this will be just another annoying flu

humans 12646 - 0 nature

Not just SK

I think everyone gave up

My city is actively suppressing testing to keep the numbers low

No one anywhere cares about Covid anymore... except China I guess since they're locking down.

People think thats another virus thats why all of the sudden they started panicking and locking down again

If its another one then fuck us royally

Maybe because it's less life threatening now after vaccine

ANOTHER ONE?????

well, i guess it's 'cause no one cares about it anymore due to the vaccine showing effectiveness.

the city i live in suspended masks use in open areas, for example.

this covid situation has already lasted for over 2 years, people everywhere are just tired, plus with vaccines the virus itself is not that much of a threat as it was in 2020.

I have both shots and am boostered. I went to a sold out theatre two weeks ago for BTS PTD after not going to the cinema for two years. I think you have to make your own choices about how comfortable you feel being in crowds.

It was really nice to go and enjoy something with a group of people. Everyone was so happy to be able to gather together and have fun

Companies ain't taking covid seriously. Look at stray kids, they all got covid just when they had their comeback. No safety protocols are being followed.

People think if you are vaccinated you are safe

I guess after a couple of years with this misery people are so over it, I certainly am.

Possibly because the only one who got REALLY sick so far has been BtoB's Minhyuk they don't really feel like it's a risk

the world got tired of it. Here they lifted every restriction u can be without mask everywhere inside or outside.

Personally I had enough after having covid 3 times and 3 vaccines shoots I just want to live life as I used to and I will still take care of myself.

Right now my mom and my sister have covid and I'm doing the test everyday and it still comes negative (for 6 days already)

No one cares much for COVID anymore. Even in my country things are pretty much back to normal. Masks are optional and the last time anyone social distanced was in 2020.

Pretty much everyone doesn't care anymore. Over here all restrictions were lifted despite cases rising matching the worst waves. The main argument for lifting was was that deaths and hospitalisations weren't increasing showing this strain isn't as potent especially after 3 doses.

Kirea is probably like that too. High cases but low deaths and hospitalisations.

one thing about the virus is the potential long term consequences which are pretty undocumented
