People aren’t testing and when they are, they do it at home and don’t report. The reported numbers are a joke.
Wastewater testing, in the very few areas where it’s being reliably done, tells the truth that can’t be hidden away.

Its not over.
Yes, it is.
It was refreshing to go away for spring break and not have to wear a mask, except for on the plane, all week.
No, it’s not. You don’t make that determination. The actual experts do.
Which experts? The pandemic has biological and psychology/social roots and they are very much distinct. The pandemic's end will be marked by psychology, not biology. In other words, when people and society say it is over, it is over. Any intelligent person can see this.
Signed.
A psychologist (I guess not a public health "expert" caught in the pandemic of bureaucracy waiting for case counts to dictate the end of the pandemic)

The actual experts have said that masking is optional just about everywhere. Listen to them.

That’s nice. I responded to someone who falsely claimed “the pandemic is over,” which is patently untrue.
Do try to keep up.

Hospitalizations and death rate is what really matters. Flu-like symptoms at home will always be around for susceptible individuals. Work to beef up your immunity if you want.
How do you “beef up” your immunity?
Eat healthy, exercise, mind your vitamins/minerals, drink water, get plenty of sleep, minimize stress, etc.
Fascinating how there’s such little discussion about this on a “heath” forum.

I suspect money. They were supposed to have updated vaccines so the question is what happened to them.
None of them worked, or didn't work better than the original vaccines. This was in the news.
Why are you making stuff up?

Yes, actually, it is. I know that's hard for you and that your mask has become your identity, but cheer up. I'm sure there is another crisis on the horizon that you can personalize in a similar way.
