Personnel

gollark: *Religious* reasons?
gollark: Perhaps this pandemic will lead to people wearing masks more often if they're sick, or maybe people will get bored of it and forget about it in a year.
gollark: I would be worried if someone with ebola was just wandering around randomly.
gollark: I mean, none of those are pandemics right now, so the political will to do anything about it doesn't exist.
gollark: And after just 20ish months and hundreds of millions of doses administered!
