Opinion: If This Is What the End of the Pandemic Looks Like, That’s Bad, Writes BGIA’s Scott Rosenstein
Scott Rosenstein, faculty member at the Bard Globalization and International Affairs Program in New York City, assesses the state of the COVID-19 pandemic for The Hill. “Even before President Biden’s highly publicized recent assertion that the COVID-19 pandemic is over, there was plenty of discussion on this topic in public health circles and beyond. Dropping the “p” word from our COVID-19 discourse would suggest to many that our current state of play is something we should accept for the foreseeable future,” Rosenstein writes. “If that’s the case, we should brace ourselves for a new normal in the U.S. with persistent labor shortages, buckling health care, and a daily death toll that would have seemed unthinkable in February 2020.”
