> Forget any stats about "cases" you can come up with for a moment: how are normal peoples' actual lives going in places where masks and most preventative measures are less common?

Forget stats about cases in order to understand stats on cases in areas with fewer preventative measures? What kind of crazy is that?

If you do care to look at stats on the Amish community there is this paper: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34117598/

And I think we all know how Florida is doing: https://www.miamiherald.com/news/coronavirus/article25729082...

I don't know how else to understand COVID impact without data and factual, meaningful statistics.

Yes, forget the stats and look at peoples' actual lives.

Life in these places is more or less the same as it always has been, other than it passing the peak of cold season. People go out without forced masks and having to show their medical histories to enter buildings. Yet these places haven't collapsed. Why not?

If the Covid narrative that we had to mask up everywhere and check your papers to ensure safety or society would collapse is accurate, why is this "control group" (for lack of a better term) not collapsing?
