    The pandemic is still ongoing. The US literally just had the second biggest wave of infections since 2019 this past week. It’s estimated that there were 2 million new cases on Jan 11th alone. The only reason it seems over is because they won’t let people test for it/keep track of case numbers and because the vaccines were effective against the new variants, which have been more infectious and more dangerous than the 2019 strain was.

    You’re right that it’s never going away, but that doesn’t mean that it’s less dangerous than it was 3 years ago.
