Most of the people I know are done with the pandemic. I am not saying that they are right, or that the pandemic is actually over, or that there are not still people suffering, or that we’re not still averaging nearly 300 Covid-19 deaths a day. I am just saying that in my social circle, hardly anyone is thinking about the pandemic anymore.
