I thought Biden said it was over and there was no need to do testing any more. Despite wastewater samples showing that it never went away and its as prominent now as it was back in 2020.

What’s the death rate for it now?

What's important now is the permanent damage covid is causing. It might be less lethal, but there's been a rise in autoimmune disorders after a covid infection, there's long covid, etc.

I mean it seems like we are in a trough compared to late summer but judging from the historical upticks we should hit one soon.
