> Now COVID is over

Excuse me, what?




That's how it feels in my country at least. We had 21 cases today, compared to a few thousand this time last year. Masks and restrictions were one of the strictest in Europe, and it's all gone now.


Because COVID has largely regressed into a mostly non-fatal illness. It's not there yet, but it is somewhat approaching the death rates from the flu.


...it's been a "mostly non-fatal illness" all along. That has not changed.
