COVID will never go away. What has happened and will continue to happen even further is the lethality and severity of symptoms will go down so it's not as worrisome. Also we have defenses and medications for it now. But what I do hope that COVID has done for us is that if you're sick or have symptoms, you'll mask up, but masking all the time now is not necessary.
Yes, but they usually last a few years before they completely dry out to where you can't use them. I've been using the same ink cartridges in my printer for going on 3 years now and it still works
Also bread and water is a vegan diet, lol
