Has COVID already become just another event in history?

It was asked on this sub when 9/11 became just another historic event, and general consensus said between 2012-2016, which sounds about right. So for over 10 years, probably closer to 15, 9/11 was a “thing”, so to speak.

I don’t think the residual effects of the pandemic lasted that long. Other than remnants of social distancing signs, and the occasional person wearing a mask, the covid era already seems like a distant memory. Even “work from the office” culture is returning, at least in New York.
