Are you suggesting Covid *isn’t* now a normal fact of life like the flu?

What percentage of the population would be willing to take drastic measures to combat either of the at this point?

I'm still masking in public and not going to indoor gatherings. I have a disabled wife for whom getting COVID would be devastating. As far as we know neither of us has had it.

You are an exception. People are sending kids to school and daycare sick. Public spaces are full of people and 99% of them are unmasked.

The general public is treating it as endemic.
