Did you hear about the movement to move the border between Idaho and Oregon to give fed up rural residents a government that isn't hostile to their way of life?

We all want to go back to normal and stay healthy.
Yes, but will we ever really be able to return back to the normal we all want to return to?

Ever wondered why the flu went away? Now we know... it didn't go away... it got counted as Covid!!!

Oh great. So now people who thought they had Covid and now have immunities really had the flu? Some anyway.
Dec-30
Some of them yes... but we'll never know how many for sure.
And one more thing, many who had a bad case of the flu now think that they have natural immunity, but then that too is totally unknown.
The CDC screwed the pooch over this one and now it's a total mess.
I guess they wanted to use the flu numbers to increase the Covid numbers to further their fear mongering.
Rumors that the PCR tests couldn't differentiate between the flu and Covid have been going around for 7 months or more but they dismissed it as conspiracy theory... and then all of a sudden... conspiracy theory becomes the truth... yet again!

Good question. The old normal or new normal? (* SAD FROWN *)
I just think that everybody would like to go back to the
1) Everything is open and you don't need vax passports. Including schools.
2) No need to wear masks.
3) Supply shortages would not be happening.
4) Gas and other inflated prices would go back to their previous cheaper levels again.
I think the above are what most people would consider "normal", but since we've all been through the mandates (vaccines & masks), lockdowns, partial closure of certain things/events/places, even after everything becomes as mentioned in 1) thru 4) above, I don't think it will ever really be the same again because of all the crap we've been going to for almost 2 years has some how forced us into accepting things we don't want to, but must, accept.
And so can we ever really get back to the "old" normal again? Hmmmm.....

Nope. It's called entropy.
Good analogy is to stand on a hilltop on a windy day with a feather pillow. Open the pillow and shake out the feathers. That is the easy part. The impossible (well, economically impractical) part is - go find all the feathers and put them back in the case.
