Is the COVID-19 Pandemic Over? A New Poll Shows Surprising Results

A new Gallup survey finds that only three in 10 Americans think the pandemic is over. But by a purely scientific measure in the United States, it sure seems like the worst is over. New cases have been in steady decline since late March, with a few regional spikes. Many retailers have abandoned mask mandates and restaurants are essentially back to full capacity in areas where restrictions have been completely lifted.

And none of the doomsday scenarios happened. Not even when Governor Brian Kemp decided to reopen Georgia, to the dismay and criticism of everyone from President Trump to MSNBC. Despite unchecked border crossings, Governor Greg Abbott’s so-called “Neanderthal” decision to end Texas mask mandates did not lead to a catastrophe. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has constantly confounded critics. And some states that never closed, such as South Dakota and Utah, never stopped living normally.

Yet, according to a Gallup poll, only 29% feel as if the pandemic is over. The poll was taken between June 14-20, just as summer was ramping up and asked: “In your opinion, is the coronavirus pandemic over in the U.S. or not?”

Can you clarify what “approved” and “authorized” mean in point 4?

As that India variant spreads, there is talk in California about once again requiring everyone to wear masks indoors.

Wait....What about follow the science?

Did the Scientists make it worse with the quarantining of millions of "well people"? Would we have reached heard immunity faster. I believe so. 15 days....my ***.

The disease was aimed at the old and compromised. So perfect, it was almost like it was a genetic cleansing.

Was Covid released deliberately?? Just too perfect to think otherwise.

This is NOT over. Believe me, they will never let this “crisis” go to waste. Just wait-—this fall they’ll push the “XYZ” variant! However, through history, as a virus runs out of hosts it weakens.....so if they state it’s worse then they’re either lying or proving it was made or altered in a lab. Which is it? Proven science regarding viruses don’t magically change.

Authorized as in Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), which the shots are currently classified.

Approval comes later (if at all; see the pericarditis and myocarditis in under-18’s).

Thanks for that. Approved also provides some safeguards for the shootee. Authorized? Take it at your own risk. That’s how I see it.

Ah ok see what you mean on fda.gov page. It has three vaccines listed as as "COVID-19 Vaccines Authorized for Emergency Use".

What the hell is the damn emergency for young healthy people who are at almost zero risk of being seriously affected by COVID-19???

So, why is it that the Anti-vaxx cultists are the same people who peddle alternative medicine BS. I have no problem with folks who choose not to take the vaccine but the “vaccines are going to kill us so let’s take cult remedies” are as annoying as the COVID maskerbators.

I don’t think there -is- that much emergency in that age group.
