I don’t think that’s the case. This will burn out. But it may take 2-3 years.
How will it burn out? Looks like you can get it multiple times.
It looks like the subsequent infections are generally less severe. Antibodies go into action sooner. And vaccines look promising. This thing doesn’t seem to be mutating too much to make vaccines viable.
Regarding the 3 “approved” vaccines: “China and Russia have approved vaccines without waiting for the results of Phase 3 trials. Experts say the rushed process has serious risks.”
There will be more pressure to mutate once there are vaccines, which will be a moment of truth. But infections being less severe won’t make it burn out, they’ll make it easier to live with. A 50% effective vaccine + masks may make it burn out quickly, but if we start packing stadiums who knows?
Where are you getting this figure from? The reports I’ve been reading aren’t anywhere near this pessimistic.
A couple months ago 70% was being thrown around as a pretty good number to hope for. I haven’t read any data the last month or so.
Almost 100% of people get antibodies but they are likely to still able to be infected at a fairly high clip.
The other thing is we’ll learn more and more about treatment, and nail down better exactly how and when this thing actually spreads.
A cheap, easily administered saliva or breath test that tells when a person is shedding from the throat is pretty much a holy grail that could make large gatherings safe again.
for (var i=12;i<=15;i++){
if (i%3 === 0) {
console.log("maybe");
}
if (i%5 === 0) {
console.log("not");
}
}With no careful reading put me with Cuse. Imperfect vaccine in 2021. 1st half?
Expect a replacement in 2023-2024. Lots of advances in biology, I think the science is getting smart enough to battle this virus though true victory might take awhile. If only we could do the easy stuff like health care and public policy and not effing help the virus.

That’s true regarding the value of rapid testing, but we need it at scale.
Rapid testing would be amazing. I want to get on a plane and travel to a country that has their shit together.
