Want fine print???
(From the Emirates INCLUDED travel insurance)
What you are covered for:
We will pay up to the amount shown in the table of benefits for the necessary and reasonable costs as a result of You becoming ill (including due to any Epidemic or Pandemic), being injured or dying during Your Trip.

I never plan on sickness or injury on my trips & may or may not have taken "travel insurance"
It is no different with this insurance - the stuff I need covered post Covid is not covered only if I get sick or injured.
I have lost a number of things on trips in the past 15 months ___ None of your "new insurances" would cover those losses, as I was not sick or injured by it.
