As a tangent, I wish we would get rid of this "zero covid spaces" mania, makes having a reasonable discussion between those who want to continue our lives as normal as possible given the circumstances (I am one of them) and those who want to get back to an illusory "pre-covid normal" basically impossible.
One of my grand-mothers died of tuberculosis about 10 years ago. Imo it's as nasty a death as death by covid is. A quick web search tells me 1.4 million people die of TB each year, I suppose an average of 1.4 million (give or take a few hundred-thousands) have died of TB each year for the last half-century at least. Nobody ever talked about us disrupting our daily lives in order to bring TB cases to zero.
