Endemic Covid-19 Has Arrived in Portugal

  https://archive.md/T6CKt https://archive.md/T6CKt "Portugal has been averaging six deaths a day for the past month, compared with almost 300 at the peak in January. Adjusted for population, the current rate equates to about 200 in the U.S. The deaths plunged to one or two a day in May and June before rising to 20 in July. The number of new daily recorded infections and hospitalizations has been trending down since the summer." By way of comparison, Portugal suffers 1-2 deaths per day in traffic accidents, so six must be quite noticeable. But of course it's also a 98% decrease since vaccination started.

    That is a lot, although we ignore traffic deaths, we kill a lot of people with cars.
