A surprise guest was expected at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) held last week in Chicago. While most were expecting Taylor Swift or Beyonce to turn up, it was COVID-19 - an invisible enemy that tormented much of humanity in the last few years, that arrived at the DNC and infected multiple attendees.
There are growing fears that the DNC may have been a superspreader event, according to a report in the NY Post.
Several attendees took to social media to share their experiences and symptoms, suspecting they may have contracted the virus.
It’s not really a surprise anymore. If you have a large gathering of people, someone is going to bring Covid to the party. That’s our world now because we couldn’t stay home for two weeks.
Yup, it’s no longer a pandemic, it is now endemic.
Humanity lost the war. Collectively, we were not good enough. Now covid is here to stay forever like the common cold and flu are.
But covid may have yet to be understood long term impacts. Some are interpreting the data like that of HIV before we understood it could progress into AIDS because the disease has not been around long enough.
