When might be a acceptable time for no longer having a mask mandate? As seen in Israel vaccination of 90% isn’t high enough.

    I draw an arbitrary line at a COVID variant with a death rate around 2x that of seasonal flu (instead of the current 10x-40x death rate). Above the line, masks with increasing measures as cases get worse. Below that, no masks or social distancing.

    Never. Sadly the vaccine isn’t enough and there still are more variants to come. So, sadly, masks and such will stay for years

    It’s not about vaccination rate it is about hospitalisation rate and death rate.

    Is there a reasonable chance that you or someone around you could have COVID? Is there a reasonable chance you or someone around you could be hopitalised/killed from catching COVID? If yes then please wheat a mask. It costs nothing and can reduce transmission by ~50%
