   Disease is the new normal.
   
   In 2018 HK closed schools and masked on after 100 flu deaths in a few weeks.
   
   Now we're taking off our masks after a month of 120 covid deaths, as it's lower than what we've had.

      Yes, I guess that's correct. But going maskless doesn't have to be part of "normal".

      @LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864} As of tomorrow, masks are no longer mandatory.
      
      It would be nice if this didn't make unmasking normal, but I'm sure it will.

            Even though it is now voluntary, I only saw a handful not masking up on my way to work. ❤️

               At work is a different story. But at least people on public transport are generally masking up for now.

      > death in a person with positive SARS-CoV-2 result and died within 28 days of the first positive specimen collection day, with the underlying cause of death related to COVID-19 upon preliminary assessment.

      
      That's the definition.
