It’s not introverts, it’s crisis-activated people. I’m an introvert and I’m useless at Covid response.

Isn't it likely that there are "pandemic programs" already in the human psyche, from both evolution and the fear of germs?

This seems more general acute crisis response personality type. I doubt there’s been enough time for evolutionary responses to pandemics to evolve since they’re a feature of dense urban settlement and trade.

I’m assuming you’re referring to more complex groups that fall outside of the vague “essential workers” and “first responders” labels…
