Changed for a very long time.
Some sectors likely changed for good. Numerous domestic flights each day filled with workers flying interstate for few hours of meetings will appear as quaint as ... kids blowing out candles on a birthday cake.
Latest CDC death figures show USA deaths are falling faster than they are being reported.
There is a difference between death reported and death occurred.
Most deaths reported in the past week (i.e. the week between July 4 and July 11) were added to previous weeks back in April and May.
Blue = deaths by week occurred as of WE July 4
Red = deaths by week occurred as of WE July 11.
So CDC recored 6,698 additional deaths in that week. But only 5% (338) of these occurred in the last week.
Of course, next week more deaths will be added to the WE 7/11.
As of 7/4, there were 177 deaths recorded in that 7/4 week. As of 7/11, there are a total of 643 deaths in the WE 7/4 (a further 466)
This CDC data is based on death certificate data It is the most reliable data (although even that has problems - England particularly it seems). However it can take many weeks for cases to filter through the system and get recorded and then get added to the appropriate week.
