'Hell no'.
I'll reference data from the Wiesbaden health authorities on this topic.
Yesterday....nation-wide....172,700 new infection situations were reported. Locally, 517 new infections were reported (293k residents).
289 Germans died yesterday from Covid.....while locally....two folks were reported dead from the virus. The local folks? One was in early 70s....the other in early 80s.
I'd generally say from the 8 PM nightly news (ARD, public TV).....there's still a slide put up and around 20 seconds of chatter to occur. Maybe twice a week....the Federal Health Minister will appear and get pretty intense on the 'fight'.
I was in a hardware store yesterday on the southside of Wiesbaden. I'd say about 40-percent of folks were still masked up. For some folks, it might take five years before they feel safe enough to go without the mask.
People still mingle, and I'd say that more than half of folks will want to discuss the virus with friends or associates. People who've had it....usually want to share that information and detail the severity or the low-impact of their episode.
If you use official numbers....nationwide....then around one out of every four Germans has had Covid (since day one). Unofficially, there's probably another couple million who had mild symptoms....never were tested, but had the virus.
