I live in Germany, I wore my scarf 2-3 times in the mall, but I don't do it any more. Most people don't give a shit anyway, they do it because they are told to, not because it is reasonable. There is also a fine of ~30€ for not wearing masks in certain inside spaces like malls, but police have to catch you, and they are basically never in there.
Wearing masks and ~social distancing~ are nothing but idiotic virtue signals.
If you don't bother to wear fully enclosed hazmat suits, don't bother doing anything at all, because the virus will catch you anyway. It's most likely that most people are already reached by the virus already and simply had no or mild symptoms. I know some people including my boss who had some mild symptoms but said he didn't have covid - because apparently it's not severe enough to be that (which is a major fallacy). That's what happens to what, 99%+ of people. And 0.01-0.03% of people die, who were on the brink of death already anyway.
Solution: Continue life as before and ignore the wuflu. Unless you are old and sick, then you should have been taking care of such things anyway, even before the wuflu.
We have an added problem. The tyrant governors of blue states are sending wuflu patients into old folks homes to pump up the death tolls, they are also reporting a high number of wuflu deaths that are actually by other causes.
I’m not aware of any other nation that is manufacturing masses of wuflu deaths to use as campaign tactics.
The reason why it's so crazy in the USA is this: Europe is largely in the grasp of socialists. They have no reason to disrupt their system - they walk the slow march towards more and more socialism, and the bump in authoritarianism is just another Tuesday to us. Our "back to normal" will be a life with still high levels of authoritarianism.
In the USA you have the resistance against socialism in charge - and as such your socialists do everything to disrupt the system and blame it on you & Trump. The fact that the very socialists cause it won't matter, the media will frame it as "America & Trump failed" and "Trump's failed economy" (and the previous successful one was of course Obama's...).
In other words: The dominating socialists in Europe are relatively timid and calm. There is no reason to go insane. Yours however - given the resistance - go absolutely insane and vicious.
Leftists are like toddlers - they need their pacifier (= government power and control) in order to be silent. Otherwise they screech, harm themselves, scratch the walls and go rampage. The only thing that can soothe their unstable minds is power.
This is why all those who resist the socialists are called bad, stupid and evil by the media. But leftists are pampered by the very same people no matter how bad, stupid and evil they are - and they actually ARE. I have yet to see the media endorse a right-wing person or condemn a left-wing person for being too evil (who does not turn on them, but does what leftist generally like - but go too far (but there is no "too far" for them anyway!)).
Regarding symptoms, you are correct. My wife got it, had shortness of breath, lost taste and smell, cough, etc. I know that, if tested for the antibody, either my whole family would have them or it isn’t nearly as contagious as they claim. We did absolutely nothing to quarantine her from the rest of us.
I had that weakness you get when fighting off a cold or other illness in the evenings every other day for about a week or so, with some mild headaches. Nothingburger.
