    From those immunocompromised people I’ve talked to since the pandemic, they were hoping for a cultural shift around this thanks to the increased awareness.

    For a short while, so many people were afraid of a virus and perhaps understood a little better what it was like for them every day.

    That has not happened from what I can see.

      Yeah, you’re right. I was kinda hoping that people would wear masks more openly when they suspect they might have the flu and try to prevent it from spreading to everyone around them. That sort of cultural shift didn’t last very long once the restrictions were lifted.
