ALT The truth is that covid is still killing and disabling way too many people, and too many people are locked out of society and can’t even access medical care safely because of high levels of covid transmission. We still need science-based isolation guidance, and we need better public health protections. For some, there are understandable financial reasons they can’t take time off work for an extended period. But instead of weakening isolation guidance for everyone, governments can more effectively reduce harm by pushing for increased structural supports that reduce virus spread, such as free N95 masks and more paid sick leave and clean-air infrastructure.
