It's also quite likely to kick the house of cards over with respect to commercial real estate values, and that... well, that's not predictable. I am halfway expecting people being dragged into the office and de-masked at gunpoint, because a commercial real estate collapse is a direct threat to the oligarchy.
(I think "normal" is half the economic threat, and half the gibbering incapacity to cope with reality being something the powerful can declare.)
The delta numbers, at Canada's current 70% vaccination rate, have it spreading better than wild type in an vaccinated population. I expect masking to be around for quite some time. I am also expecting governmental legitimacy is at some risk of starting to hinge on things impossible to provide, as people have clear memories of the time before the plague.
