America is giving up on the pandemic?

Airtime is finite - editorially, it's unsurprising the story took a backseat. NYC curbed infection rate, there may be seasonality, numbers in general are going down in this country.

If we see another phase it will be A1 material again.

I wonder how much longer the words "A1 material" will even make sense to people? Like, they will probably think you are talking about quality of meat or something.

Newspapers; I'd almost forgotten about them.

Funny. I am 40, certainly old enough to remember newspapers, but I didn’t get the reference until the last line of your post.

Also, sorry you are getting downvoted. Emotions are running high. I’d guess folks are interpreting your snark against newspapers as snark against the parent.
