Good News, thanks to The Trump 3 vaccines and his taskforce policies over the past 12 months, The pandemic's effects on The United States are waning.

Once we have a cure for the common cold, teacher's will probably think about getting back to work, meanwhile keep paying your school taxes.

My vaccination is undocumented ... like an immigrant.

I’m Trans-Vaxxed.

I’d rather contract covid and abort it.

Unvaxxed Lives Matter!

Defund the ... CDC!

AVAB!

I’m a Long-Hauler and need perpetual Stimulus Checks, like a government employee.

1. Are people going to have to revaccinate for the Fall and will we be continually stuck in this cycle of masking and social distancing for the foreseeable future?
2. Since the numbers (which are questionable at best) are falling will we be lifting mask and social distancing restrictions or will we progress to two masks and only doubly-vaccinated people and meet inside?

Also lowering the sensitivity of the PCR test

Welcome news.

As you point out, vaccines are starting to bite into it. Thank you President Trump!

60 million Americans have had a first shot, heavily skewed toward the oldest and most vulnerable. Vaccination will inexorably squash COVID into the dirt.

Naturally acquired immunity from infection is probably still much greater, but the vaccine effect is catching up, and the precise targeting magnifies its effect on hospitalizations and deaths.

By the end of April, the 65+ year old population should basically all have had a first shot (who will take it).

COVID wards are already shrinking and closing in US hospitals.

Call the CDC and tell them you are hearing that the covid is no worse than the common cold. My understanding is that they will tell you they printed that on their website last year.
