With any luck, the warm weather + increased vaccination will shift the masses' narrative on masks and lockdowns so it ends this summer. It's more convenient to pretend there's some world-ending pandemic going on when the weather's shit. Plus, this will let the democratic establishment pat themselves on the back and claim they solved COVID19. The real question is whether the money billionaires are making off the lockdowns will be enough to bribe the government into deny bread and circuses this summer.
