“In December, the approval of two coronavirus vaccines in the United States renewed hopes that the pandemic was almost over. With it came a deep craving to go back to the so-called “before times.” For many, the only way to overcome a thing as awful as the pandemic is to pretend it never happened.

While it is easy to condemn this reflex, part of it rests in the simple fact that most people are not taught how to navigate an uncertain future.”
