Yeah, it is pretty odd how some people are still in maximal hysteria mode. By this point, nothing else has changed for over a year or will change, going forward, so their behaviour is either permanent or until their own minds calm down.
The other concerning part of Covid-obsession is that people aren't as concerned about influenza, which is what worries me (especially since it hasn't seen a big outbreak since before the pandemic). That is one we have dealt with forever and will need to continue dealing with for the foreseeable future and it can actually be quite scary.
Ever since Covid variants changed to not so easily cause pneumonia, it is more like bad cold (essentially, like other Coronaviruses). Just stay home if you are sick (whatever it is) but otherwise live your life.
