I think that for people without enough paid sick leave (maybe especially in the US), being knocked out for 2-3 weeks with a virus that is more infectious than flu is an event causing long term damage to their life. Especially with the repeal of many COVID-safety protocols at companies because of social pressure.

That is a US problem though, not a COVID problem. Go vote for paid sick leave.
