They need not worry. There will be a new super variant, oven ready, to keep us under curfew.

Do not worry. There will be something else to scare us and force us to give up freedoms when covid goes away.

Come spring?! Has this guy been paying attention? We’ve been in pandemic fatigue since July.

This is probably why they are done with lockdowns in Europe and rioting over it. Just wait until the weather gets nice.

Nope, can’t have any normalcy in the populace. How can they maintain control over that?

By July 4th this will be effectively over in the U.S. That is if Biden doesn’t further botch vaccine distribution.

I bet he never missed one paycheck during the pandemic.

These people are so out of touch with Americans, they have no idea what we go through.

‘pandemic fatigue’

I call it society’s rational process of balancing the risk of isolation and job loss with the risk of dying of the virus.

People have stopped dying since Biden became president. Or at least they don’t publish the numbers any longer.

How bad are the vaccine shortages in your state?

I'm thinking pandemic fatigue sounds an awful lot like that dreaded brain cloud condition!

Who stopped publishing the numbers? I see 88,212 COVID-19 deaths since Biden took office.

covid cases, at this rate, will reach levels one year ago in just a few more weeks.

We can import the plague now with millions of illegal aliens so there are no worries.

I’m fatigued with the bureaucrats and their insanity. Enough brainwashing for a lifetime has taken place in the last year. The only ones to escape the nonsenses, were the vile group of people who started this viral outbreak, the flu.

Tell this moron that he is way off and we are over his crap already.

This was a straight up play by the left to control people in every aspect of their lives, it did not work.

Let me guess. “Pandemic fatigue” will be an official explanation of looting and rioting this summer.
