Covid has become milder. It's only as dangerous as the flu these days, and we don't do giant shutdowns for the flu.

... Because of this vaccination, high population-level immunity from infection reduces the risk to human health, and the mortality rate has significantly reduced than before. For the decreasing trend in COVID-19 deaths and a decline in COVID-19-related hospitalization and intensive care unit admission, the WHO has declared that COVID-19 no longer constitutes a public health emergency of international concern on May 5, 2023.
