This is certainly not the current situation with Covid anywhere in the U.S, so afraid to say we're still in a pandemic. When endemicity finally arrives we may still have the misfortune of having flu and this coronavirus responsible for much illness seasonally. This would have far reaching implications, naturally. I really hope not, but it's sure looking that way right now.
