The virus has ceased to exist as a news story.
I respectfully disagree. You and I have largely moved on from the virus, but much of the country still lives in complete fear of it and they look to politicians and health bureaucrats for the answer.
The media and doom doctors have done a good job of sowing fear among the people to the point that many millions still believe a porous piece of cloth over their face will somehow protect them from getting it. This is despite the same people telling us that masks don’t work and we should not wear them only months ago.
They have also done a great job of making people believe that endless shut-downs are necessary DESPITE clear evidence to the contrary and that states that are most restrictive have done or are doing worse than states that have resumed semi-normal activity.
The media and political partisans are now focusing more of their energy on blaming Trump for the virus and the continued misery they impose on the rest of us.
