How so? I suppose since Omicron is basically just a cold, the CDC has reduced requirements for those who test positive: just 5 days of quarantine and 5 days of strict mask-wearing.

Combined with Biden’s admission that there’s no federal solution to COVID - big turnaround from his claim that he’d solve it if elected, huh? - it seems that the Democrats realize they can’t keep the fear-mingering going over what is essentially a cold or flu.
