PFFFFFTTTTTHHHHHHTTT!!!
And a big fat razzberry to you, Jen Psaki.
Add to that another juicy fragrant one from the other orifice, FFFFOOOOOTTTTTT!, in your general direction.
People in England will no longer be legally required to wear face masks from next week, although they will still be recommended in some settings.
The change is part of the prime minister’s wider announcement to end Plan B coronavirus measures in England.
How are the rules changing in England?
From Today, Thursday 20 January, face masks will no longer be required in secondary school classrooms, and the Department for Education will shortly remove guidance on their use in communal areas.
Face coverings will not be legally required in any setting
From Thursday 27 January:
The government “recommends” that people wear face coverings in enclosed or private spaces, but this will be a personal judgement.

After 2 1/2 years we know that COVID is all bullshit. None of this needed to happen. Stop abusing us now.
I don’t recommend that our “public masters” keep raining abuse on us because the mood is getting real ugly.
Jen is FJBs Brain.
Scary.
“the U.S. has also peaked”
CDC reports the peak of the National 7 day moving average of new cases occurred on the 13th of Jan. (https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailycases) The highest single day’s report was on the 10th.
At that time, some big States like California and Texas were still rising, but they have now peaked as well, which will accelerate the National decline that we will see next week. The NorthEast corridor from DC to Boston started and peaked earlier than the National average.
Wastewater analysis from Massachusetts indicates that the peak of the actual viral load in the community was about a week before the reported peak in new cases there.
The general shape of earlier Omicron waves elsewhere indicates that we can expect the daily number of new cases to drop in half from the peak, in about 10 days to two weeks. A month after the peak, they would be down to 1/10th of the peak.
The percentage of adults with some immunity to COVID-19, through vaccination, infection or both, is estimated to be well above 95%. After highly infectious Omicron has mopped up most of the stragglers, future variants will have little fuel available to make much of an impact. When (as seems very likely) cases drop very low on a Global basis in March, the chances of the generation of potential new variants of concern will also decrease, along with the total number of infections.
With very high probability, that is the end of COVID-19 as a pandemic. The USA is a bit ahead of the Global average, for starting and peaking our Omicron wave, but it is just a matter of a few weeks.
