i asked my physician yesterday why he thought the pandemic ended and covid was no longer a big deal.

he said it was because most people got vaccinated.

i responded by asking if he thought it might actually be because of widespread natural immunity since almost everyone actually was infected with one of the many variants

he said that had never occurred to him but probably wasn't the reason

i canceled all future checkups at the front desk and will now search for a new primary physician that can think critically.
