When, exactly, do we get to return to normal life? Is it when every single person is vaccinated? Is it when lockdowns finally demonstrate any effectiveness at fighting COVID-19? When we've driven all our kids nuts and small businesses bankrupt with restrictions? When disease is completely eradicated around the time the sun sputters out? Or will it be when the pajama class is finally bored with lording it over the rest of society and decides it's time to come up for air? It's a question requiring an answer as our lords and masters show every inclination to once again tighten the screws to address a never-ending public health emergency.
A year and a half into the pandemic, every American 12 and older who cares to be vaccinated against COVID-19 has had the opportunity to get a shot. That's important, because all of the available vaccines are extremely effective at reducing the dangers of infection for their recipients.
"All authorized COVID-19 vaccines demonstrated high efficacy (≥89%) against COVID-19 severe enough to require hospitalization," according to current Centers for Disease Control Guidance that includes consideration of the Delta variant that has so many people concerned. "In the clinical trials, no participants who received a COVID-19 vaccine died from COVID-19."
That's about as much assurance as you can ask of a world that offers no guarantees of safety. Epidemiologists have warned for months that COVID-19 is probably a permanent part of our lives, so we need to learn to tolerate it as one risk among many.
"The pandemic seems to be shifting to an endemic situation, meaning the virus could remain a constant presence," notes a July news piece from the Medical University of South Carolina. "We have to figure out how to live with it, I think," comments Dr. Michael Sweat

There has NEVER been an “exit plan”.
Permanent pandemic paranoia.
Reason tries, but they are _so_ out of touch with the real world of 2021.
We are dealing with sociopaths who cannot be “Reason”ed with...
Remember when they said “it can’t happen here”.
Well, it is happening here—and “Reason” better start paying attention...
A plan for the medical tyranny to be used against us indefinitely.
No Constitutional limits on medical tyranny in the USA.
We return to normal life when we, the people, ignore the pronouncements of those who have a vested interest in the continuation of this ridiculous “crisis”.
REFUSE. DISOBEY. IGNORE.
Has anyone just walked past a restaurant worker in NYC that has asked for ‘papers’?
What was the result?
This is just the BEGINNING of THE END as in endtimes. There are only 2 choices for eternity. It’s ours to make.
Yep, one “emergency” edict after another.
COVID-19 will never be exterminated; it’ll be around for hundreds, if not thousands of years, as all virii area. The variants are with us, forever. Get used to it.
Exactly, I but stopped reading the propaganda when I read this: “ That’s important, because all of the available vaccines are extremely effective at reducing the dangers of infection for their recipients.”
Vaers deaths and side effects are rising, the Astra Zeneca has been pulled, ( they announced they are getting out of the vax business), boosters are being planned for, all the indications of a FAILED vax and agenda. Wake up America.
I did my part today. Went into a store where masks were highly recommended. Curious that they weren’t required. No mask for me.
Ignore these people. Disobey.
If your employer requires vaccination, make them fire you then work for someone who won’t require it. This is an opportunity for us to build our own parallel society not subject to their rules.
Covid has been used to oust the best president of my lifetime from office in a leftist coup. Given the success the left had with that I’d guess they’re just getting started. The possibilities are endless in what they can do under the guise of public health. If this thing ever does go away we’ll all be lucky if we’re not slaves or in gulags.
Early on I realized and said here that it’s not just the socialist revolution via extremely exaggerated public health crisis (and it’s become a full on totalitarian takeover) but also the transhuman revolution.
It is just another version of the flu. It may never disappear. Either we accept a certain number of collateral deaths or we accept permanent lockdown and loss of freedom. I know which choice I’m making.
Isrealis have learned to live with a certain number of terrorism deaths.
They don’t shut down every time Hezbollah lobs a rocket.
