I hope not. Republicans have been working post-pandemic to ban the government's ability to force mask requirements and social distancing. If a new one comes around, it is going to be much, much worse.

If the sort of people who refuse to wear masks in a pandemic start suffering from neurological disorders, how are we going to tell?

Agreed. Look at Florida. Got f*cked during Covid because of opening early and making masks and social distancing optional. Ranks 23/50 by Death Rate (deaths per 100,000 people), according to CDC.
