For four years now, either as a physical virus or as a looming threat, the COVID-causing pathogen SARS-CoV-2 has been the elephant in every room—sometimes confronted and sometimes ignored but always present. While once we dreamed of eradicating COVID, now much of society has resigned itself to SARS-CoV-2’s constant presence—a surrender that would once have been unthinkable.
Worldwide, there were more than 11,000 reported deaths from COVID between mid-December 2023 and mid-January 2024, and more than half of those deaths occurred in the U.S. In that same time frame, nearly one million cases were reported to the World Health Organization globally (although reduced testing and reporting means this is likely a vast undercount). In particular, epidemiologists are monitoring the newest variant of SARS-CoV-2, JN.1, and looking for any signs that it may be more severe than previous strains.

What pandemic?
Its RAMPANT!
Its Rampant I tell you!
Yep, like Winter colds.
Now they’re tracking a cold and looking for ways to halt society so they no longer need to “track a cold”.
“Fifth Year” 🙄
LOL. No, it doesn’t.
Insanity.
These people are so disingenuous or just delusional.

“in the Fifth Year of the Pandemic”
Imagine being this person?
Can you even imagine it?
A human brain, utterly without form and void.
Really kind of remarkable in a way.
This is becoming ridiculous. I think the only reason they are keeping Covid in the news is so a new variant can “ramp” up a couple months before the general election. They can then demand mail-in ballots only.
My sister and her husband had Covid (again) last week. They felt rough for a couple of days, but continued with most of their regular routine. By day three, they were back to normal. Covid is nothing more than a serious cold for most people. Others, the ones with immune issues, may have a harder time if they catch it, but that is true for any virus in which they come in contact. The true risk comes from being hospitalized. Then the treatment may just kill you.
Just to be safe, I am wearing a mask and also standing six feet from my computer while reading this article.
Coup-24 can only be cured with mass mail-in-balloting.
When I was younger I loved SciAm. Practically worshipped it.
Now it’s become your crazy uncle.
“COVID’s COMIN’ BACK! IT’S GONNA GETCHYA!”
I had a subscription for many years. Cancelled it around 2004, after my wife got tired of hearing me grumble as I read it.
Disingenuous is too nice.
Deliberately deceitful is more like it.
