@mcmullin@currentbias my local government's Covid dashboard says that currently we are "below the transmission threshold" of 3% of weekly ER visits. Currently at one of the lowest points ever, 0.49% of visits.
Wastewater measurements are 4.2% (~280k) of the peak we reached in January (~6.28m).
I am not saying long covid doesn't exist/isn't bad, but right now things seem about as best they've been. How much lower do things need to get before people say "ok maybe you don't need a mask?"
