Do you guys feel that people in your area/city/community have "gotten over" the pandemic? As in, they really act like it's over, or just don't care?
I'm usually one of the few people still wearing a mask. Many places don't have free sanitizer. Booster clinics are being shut down because almost no one is using them.
Social distancing is non-existent to the point where I will start a fake cough spasm just to get people who are breathing down my neck in a line.
If the fall "wave" becomes a reality, it's going to be a perfect storm.

Most people here don't wear masks, maybe 1/3 of us still do. Most places still have sanitizer at the door, most people still social distance waiting in lines, most bank and store counters still have the plastic barriers, but other than that people act like things are back to normal.
Most people are vaccinated or were infected, so if there is a major wave in the fall, way less people will get seriously sick or need to be hospitalized, it won't be as bad as the 2020 or 2021 fall waves.

Yeah, it's probably too much work to take down the barriers, and there's no determinant to keep them up, so I bet they're here to stay.
I read that the new Omicron variant doesn't care if you're a prior customer - it affects you all the same. And vaccinations wane after about 6 months, so for those who were fully vaccinated/boosted in the winter, the fall wave has the potential to be pretty bad.

After going through two airports earlier this month, it seems the public has gotten over the pandemic. I would estimate masking at 10-15% in both the terminals and plane.

Whatever that stuff people rub on their hands (Sanitary Solution?); I'm still on my first bottle from 2 years ago. Instead I went old school and wrapped myself in aluminum foil and duct tape.
Wait, what? You're supposed to drink it?
All this time I've been injecting it, just like POTUS said...

At least she is under 70. Looks like Joe is recovering.

My hypochondriac, little furry Jewish hedgehog of a tenant who is constantly triple masked-up and double-boostered on just got the COVID. I did a check on him using mail delivery as an excuse when he told me. I pretty much threw the mail at him and bolted wishing him well as I fled.

I see the villagers have finally stormed the castle with their torches and pitchforks pushing Dr Frankenstein to the other side of the cornfield.
