It’s not “empathy burnout.” It’s Covid brain damage. From neuropathologist: “Covid damages the frontal lobe of the brain.

Many areas of the frontal lobe are essential to the execution of empathy.

Most people are on their 3rd/4th+ infection/s already.

But it’s ‘empathy burnout”’

At least they’re recognising the loss of function I suppose. Many can’t.”
