Infection Management
The social and economic consequences of COVID-19 are still being felt. The pandemic led to high levels of inflation that people are still struggling with. Futhermore, increased isolation due to quarantining led to increased levels of mental health issues.
Additionally, many people have reported a number of persistent and negative side effects known as "long-COVID".
Many people still contract COVID-19. The virus is abundant in our wastewater along with droplets that can still be found in the air. However, despite its prevalence, the symptoms of disease have become relatively mild.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, it was necessary to take precautions and isolate as much as possible. Post pandemic, it is still important to be mindful of our intimate partner choices. COVID-19 is not an STD but close contact to another person can increase rates of transmission.
