In 2020 those in power in the media and government told us that left unchecked, the virus would overwhelm hospitals and cause even more people to die, and to some extent that did happen.
The pandemic is over because if you go to the hospital now, on a random day, there are empty beds, and there isn't a COVID ward. There doesn't have to be careful testing and whatnot to know that the pandemic is over. You can just look around. It's either over or so minor that calling it a pandemic seems to be a misuse of the word.
