Endemic has a specific meaning - that there is an expected number of cases in a given population.
That's not really established for COVID-19.
Also, endemic doesn't mean something doesn't matter. In much of Africa, malaria is endemic.
What you mean is "As a society we stopped caring."

I see lots of young not wearing masks to protect themselves, and I see more older people protecting themselves with masks. Seems like a reasonable balance.
