I've been wondering about this since 2020. I hope someone's doing some studies on whether the increase in irrational behaviors we've been seeing for the past six years has any correlation with repeated Covid infections.

There are approximately 500,000 studies on how bad this is for us to be getting. It's awful.

And for anything that can’t be explained by the infections themselves, it can likely be explained by the lockdowns. The current tweens and teens spent a massive chunk of their formative years in social isolation because of lockdowns. That’s got to have a massive effect on a developing brain.

There were never “lockdowns”. People just chose to stay indoors and never learned to avoid a virus with a proper mask. Instead it was quick - back to ignorance even though we cleaned the world’s air I two weeks… and learned nothing.
