On Covid

I think Wilson's take on this is about right…

There are three primary reasons why Covid, as we have known it, is coming to an end in the wealthier parts of the world. First, we have less severe variants now. Second, most people in the developed world who want to be vaccinated have been vaccinated, many multiple times. And third, we have antivirals that can protect those who get very sick.

I would add though that no matter what time only goes in one direction, forward. "Going back" should be disregarded as much as anything else. We are here now, and it is time to move forward… but we can do that without COVID being the centerpiece of everything.
