However, years later in late 2024, measured wastewater levels and serious illness risks appear statistically to be at their lowest of any point over the course of the COVID pandemic.
The linked article states that "we are in freefall" and contains a lot of florid language to imply that we are all at risk of serious disease. We are not. The rate of COVID-related illness is drastically and radically lower at this specific point in time than nearly any other since before the pandemic, and it's rational for people to react as such.
Personally, I'm boosted (so many times I've run out of space on my card), and I've got boxes of N95s, and in the event of any reportable uptick, I have no hesitation in going back to full protection. My loved ones feel the same way. But we are currently in no way at the same level of risk we were just a couple of years earlier.
We will all have to live with COVID in the same way we all live with the flu, pneumonia, cholera and any number of diseases. (The cholera pandemic is, according to the WHO, still ongoing!) We all risk illness and death every single day regardless of COVID; in the area I live, the risk of dying or experiencing serious injury in a car accident is currently greater than the risks of contracting COVID.
It doesn't help us in any way to continue to live in fear after the worst has passed. I don't disagree with a message to stay vigilant, but to say that the sky is falling when it is not is absurd.
That doesn't mean nobody will ever die from it anymore. People die from pnemonia and even common cold too, everyday even.
i was on the fence during the pandemic, but after i saw myself censored for saying covid came from a lab, the jig was up for these fraudsters. people that push the covid narrative are a special kind of evil.
