They were reverting back to normal as you've written these very words. Btw, COVID-19 lethality reached its peak on April 7, and it continues to decline monotonically thereafter, more than 7-fold in total.

Widespread fall in hospital fatality rates among COVID-19 patients is also observed; before the second wave, world critical cases percentage constituted 0.8 %, whereas now it reaches only 0.53 %.

To make long story short, we have already won, and the time has come to clean the battlefield from sharp shards of victory. The virus hath slain his thousands, the quarantine-driven panic — tens of thousands.
