The gist OP is getting at, though not put so eloquently, is that covid is endemic and there will continue to be deaths, even in a world with 100% vaccinated and boosted people.

So covid being "over" is really a state of mind/choice of when to accept that it's endemic and drop the hysterics/restrictions.

Omicron should be cheered as an effectively natural vaccine that looks to quickly end the worst of covid, yet media continues to fear monger about case counts, by and large. I am seeing some articles speaking to it as beneficial though.

The fear a lot of people have over covid is totally out of proportion with the actual data, and media by and large continues to stoke these fears.
