WE go to Yosemite 5-7 times a year. Until I retired last August, we had to avoid summer because of my work schedule. Never went after Memorial Day or before Labor Day to avoid crowds, heat and mosquitoes. With the dry weather, there doesn't seem to be the pools of stagnate water for them to breed. Also, we didn't see the much in the way of wild life up there last week. No bears sightings (we listen on the scanner), on;y squirrels and a few mule deer.
Perhaps when the other two campgrounds open up in the next few weeks, the bears will venture into the CG's and surrounding meadows.
We have reservations to go back again in a few weeks and may try the Tachi Casino if not too hot.
