Isn't it possible that we are all now experiencing a shared path/reality because we all "chose" to experience the virus path? and that there is a different shared path/reality that is Covid-free? Of course, perhaps there is no choice at all. See Sam Harris' view of no free will.
A Future, not THE Future, indeed. Great article, please keep them coming
and now taking it one step further ... of course your statement assumes there are others ... which might not be the case, but for the sake of argument lets say there are multiple minds here all experiencing COVID - the fact is that we are all individually free (or not - depending on Sam) to decide how to react to it .... heeding or ignoring whatever advice you listen to so the futures we now have before us become some kind of medium of the aggregate reaction. ( i think that makes sense - need to step away to unravel the knots in my mind!) and definitely yes - there is some path in the past that did not lead to COVID at all.
