Given the amount of morons I see who cough without covering their mouth, the next pandemic is going to be so much worse. A lot of people took offence at being asked to think about others, I think next time they'll go out of their way to be as selfish as possible.

Its worse since people wont accept preventive measures and immune systems are destroyed by the covid pandemic. It will absolutely be a mass death event aka the black death.

They'll die then.
This isn't covid, this is far far worse. When covid began I was grateful that it wasn't bird flu. There won't be any space for that kind of quibbling when over HALF the people getting sick die. No chance of just covering it up and getting people back to work. It'd be like the 1918 pathogen, whole families wiped out. It's absolutely the worst case scenario in terms of pandemics that could realistically happen.
