What is abnormal has been societies reaction to it or should I say over-reaction. Even here you have people wanting to know names and addresses of the sick. Rather a sick thought of it's own really.
"Will we ever get back to normal?" You're looking at the new normal IMO and it's quite sad.

I hate to break this to you, BUT.....

117,569 deaths/1,883,119 cases = 6.24%

Not quite the "everyday flu", which generally has a mortality of 0.1%
