I mean honestly I live in the US and my life hasn't been that affected. I can go to karaoke, bars, parties, even with strangers with no concerns. I show I'm vaccinated, wear a mask, that's it. Oh, wait, I also use more hand sanitizer than before. I even got the nice kind that has a good scent to it and doesn't dry my hands.

I'm sure it sucks more for people with conditions that compromise their immune system or people who live with such conditions. And I wish more people would vaccinate and mask up like me so they don't have to worry about its spread. But its political now, so our most vulnerable suffer.
