gay house party blithely held during the height of the city’s initial battle with COVID-19. Partiers were skewered and scorned on social media, socially shamed for their shameful socializing and bragging about it.Last summer, I took revelers partying on Fire Island to task for ignoring COVID-19 New York State orders, including social distancing and mask-wearing.
Speedo-clad hunks selfishly unprotected, crammed together, putting themselves, their friends and their families at risk for the virus.
Equally, the attendees were lambasted for their inconsiderate behavior and being verbose about it.Now, here we stand, the virus exploding across the country, new mutations developing, vaccines stalled, hospitals’ ICUs overflowing, health care workers.
