Even in the EU we are not getting nearly enough vaccines. There is no end in sight. If we keep vaccinating at the current speed, it'll be YEARS before everyone is vaccinated.

And it's not about having to wear a mask or not being able to do what you want. Extreme isolation is HARD.

<weird post coming up>
This morning I was out for a walk. On two occasions I passed a guy in the street close enough that I could smell their Cologne. (Which wasn't even that close, they were just wearing too much ) but it was like it triggered a very very distant memory of being in the same room as other people - in a classroom or at the office. Like I suddenly very clearly realized "other people still exist!" I know that sounds super weird, not like I haven't seen anyone on the street before but they do say smell ia a very strong trigger for memories.
Suddenly I miss just sensing other people's presence. And it's so weird because I don't even LIKE other people. In my previous job (the one that lasted 2 months) I was overwhelmed by having too many people around me in this cramped open plan office. I'd come home from work feeling extremely tense every day.

Guess that just shows what isolation does to you and how much it can affect you.
