Maybe, just maybe, we will see the light at the end of the tunnel as far as Covid restrictions here. My husband works for the government. They have gone from telework to hybrid recently, with people taking turns going into the office in pairs a few times a week. A few days ago, his agency announced that everyone has to be back in the office in September.

The health emergency expires in September. That is what permits restrictions like mask mandates and vaccine passports. Without the health emergency, the government cannot take those measures. It also was what allowed government employees to work hybrid or from home. Anyways, we are thinking the higher ups were told they need to bring people back to the office because the government is letting the emergency expire.
