Is the common cold going away? This virus isn't going away. So you mean LOCK IT DOWN FOREVER so you can feel safe when there is no safety. I, for one, will NEVER EVER EVER comply!
Remember when Biden began his presidency and asked everyone to wear a mask for 100 days? That's all people had to do to put the pandemic to a close. We didn't have to wear a mask forever... ONLY for 100 days! That's it! But people refused to do it for political reasons and that's why we're still in this pandemic and need to wear a mask forever.
Here you go for people still in the past, two actual DOCTORS talking about Covid and Masking just posted TWO Days ago. Modern information on the current Covid
Report of two more variants of Omicron in South Africa, called BA-4 and BA-5, expected to soon be greeting us in North America.
These variants are particularly good at evading our "immunity."
So don't throw away your mask stockpile quite yet.
And now talk about how weak BA4 and BA5 are
If we gave numbers to every cold variant we get, it would be the same thing

Everyone in New York City listened and New York has the worst infection rate.

I'm not in any pandemic and I don't wear a mask. So there's that.
Have fun wearing a hazmat suit and a bullet-proof vest for the rest of your life.

2 weeks to slow the spread
People took this way more seriously in 2020
Even states like Florida shut down early on
Vegas was closed for months
You actually think if everyone wore masks for 100 days a year later this would be over?
It's never going away!
But it's going to get milder and milder.
As an aside always be leery of people spouting off round numbers as though they have any significance
100 days was based in what exactly? Why not 98 days or 102 days?
The other good one was some July 4th cutoff to hit some vaccine threshold so we could declare "independence" from covid
Give me a break
And btw I doubt Biden remembers saying that and why do you care about what any politician says about anything ever?It's just noise.

Exactly
Early on we were told hospitalization numbers but they don't do that anymore bc hospitalizations are way down
Total number of covid cases doesn't mean anything in a vacuum bc different strains have been very different from each other
If somehow we get a variant that threatens overwhelming hospitals then we have a problem
But that's not happening and is extremely unlikely to happen at this point
If the original covid was as mild as 2022 covid we wouldn't have shut down for one day and nobody would have been worried about it at all.

Don't forget about 6 feet social distancing. Where did they come up with 6 feet? It has been determined that the so-called "experts" just PLUCKED THAT NUMBER OUT OF THIN AIR!
This whole COVID nonsense has been blown way, way, WAY out of proportion.
People are STILL listening to the so-called "experts," the same people who just MADE UP most of these "rules and regulations."
It's a fascinating study in human sheeplike behavior. It is TRULY amazing.
