And yes to all the rest. Lifting of mask mandates and behavioural controls (like distancing and occupancy limits) has been premature, which has given people all the licence they need to act like everything is A-OK.

Also, it is way too early to decipher whether variants are truly “milder.” There’s considerably more vaccine protection throughout the population today than there was 12-18 months ago, before current variants existed. More analysis is needed to understand the extents to which variants have contributed to mortality as compared to vaccinated and unvaccinated populations. We are still one unfortunate mutation away from going back to square one or worse…
