Tyler Cowen argues that public weariness with pandemic protections and skepticism toward health authorities have left the U.S. unprepared for ongoing COVID risks. He notes 300 to 400 deaths daily, long COVID debates, and a need for renewed vaccine efforts amid public fatigue and a global travel sample showing uneven caution.
