‘after COVID” and “post COVID” are common parlance. This language is confounding not only because COVID-19 remains a threat, but also because one would be hard-pressed to find anyone similarly willing to say “post AIDS”, for example, despite AIDS being first recognized nearly half a century ago’.
Suggesting the world is “post COVID” contributes to an unwitting shift in research priorities
