After a brutal winter, the Omicron wave is finally easing up. Cases are plummeting, and people aren’t waiting hours in line for last-minute COVID tests anymore. Of course, this lull might not last forever. If there’s one thing Delta and Omicron taught us, it’s that this virus tends to come back with a vengeance, often about two months after the end of the last surge. But after two years of constant disruptions and living in fear, we’re tired. So why not take this opportunity to return to a temporary normal (or as much normalcy that’s possible in a pandemic world), whether it’s eating indoors again or seeing relatives before another variant hits? The experts even (circumspectly) have your back. |
