Are we still in a pandemic, or what?

Haven’t heard the word mentioned since summer...and most ppl don’t wear masks anymore!

Lots of talk of the local "tridemic" -- COVID, Flu, and some childhood respiratory disease I've never heard of before. The news just announced the first child to die of the flu this "season". :( All doctors' offices, hospitals, etc., require masks here, but not stores.

@ChipmunkErnie It'll be interesting to see how China will play in to this. They're anticipating a huge outbreak. I read 1 million deaths in 2023. And given how this virus travels I think it's safe to say we're not out of the woods globally. Meld it in to flu and RSV and it could be a really rough winter for a lot of people.

@Ynotisay Ah, "RSV" -- that's the one I couldn't remember. Don;t think I'd ever heard of it until a couple of months ago.
