I noticed this while listening to music, but it seems to be similar in other media such as twitch streams. You would think that such an important would be mentioned a lot because it affects everyone, but it seems to be strongly avoided.

    i think it’s not likely to come up in most popular music but i have heard hip-hop lyrics that reference it

    someone pointed out that any movies/tv that take place in the “present” now take place in alternate realities where covid-19 never existed

      Thats a really good way to sum it up.

        I know very little about movie production but I imagine it takes a while to get a decent script and subsequently produce a movie (~1yr minimum). The real test would be if we don’t see any COVID movies in the upcoming year. That being said there is ‘Host’ (2020) which is a horror film that takes place entirely on a Zoom call.
