I'm really sorry for your loss. I lost two friends to it too.
It was a once in a lifetime situation that was made worse by misinformation and fear. There was fear on all sides. Its tragic how this has divided friends, coworkers and families. Regardless of our stance, why should our love for one another disappear because we don't agree on something? Same as politics.
Its so tragic. I've often wondered if they didn't advertise company names how big a difference that would have made, along with not mandating it. Obviously the latter will stir the pot but people are naturally rebellious when the government tells you what to do, so it seems.
We don't argue about which company gives a flu shot. We don't want it we don't take it and take the consequences with it. But now with so much disinformation about autism and the like, we see the uptick of diseases long since controlled.
None of this is new either. Reading the history of the 1918 pandemic tells us all the same arguments were made then. I guess history will repeat itself and our grandchildren and great-grandchildren will bring things back to stability.
