My pharmacy has also removed the clear plastic walls they've had in place since 2020. No more talking around the clear plastic walls and trying to hear each other. I was at the post office last week and noticed the mask sticker on the door was removed, so no more masking at the post office. It's worth noting this is suburban Atlanta. My wife's specialist doctor and our son's doctor still require masks in their offices, as of July. We are talking about switching our son to my doctor, so only my wife Lauren's specialist doctor would require masks. Outside of that twice-a-year visit to her specialist, we wouldn't wear any masks and it won't seem any different than 2019.
I saw a news report that said COVID-19 death totals are now down to the same level as March 2020.

My mother in law had heart surgery a little over a week ago and most of the staff; nurses and doctors weren't wearing them. Only when they walked into her room. Patients or their visitors weren't required to wear them.
