It is indeed really easy to cherry pick data and ignore confounding variables.
Just because the PHEIC is over doesn't mean that COVID is not still killing people. At this point it's unlikely to kill me, but it is still quite good at killing old people and the immunocompromised.
I would also rather not run the risk of catching long COVID, which I think affects about 8% of cases to some extent and can be really bad in some cases. Brain fog? Post-exertional malaise? No thanks.
Better ventilation should be helpful. I don't really want to be in places with high CO2 anyway. Waterloo region schools seem to have a lot of air purifiers.
