Hello Darth,
The CCP virus will likely go out with a whimper and not a bang and we’ll know which probably by mid-late summer.
My best guess is that it will not be concluded during summer, and will still pose a threat in the fall. There is no way humans will be able to realize the goal of getting 80% of humans in the world vaccinated. We probably won't even be able to do that in the USA unless the defiant Republican men change their positioning, which is sadly based on politics, not science.
The larger issue is that this disease knows no borders. We have a larger challenge than simply getting enough Americans vaccinated. Even if we could rid the USA of it completely, we would have to cut ourselves off from the rest of the world. That is highly impractical, and would cause our economy to crash.
New cases have begun a sharp rise throughout the world. Developing countries are still struggling to get enough vaccine, and they do not have vaccination programs or plans in place. This disease attacks humanity regardless of nationality. It requires that humanity drop all differences and coordinate a response.
Humanity is at war with a virus.
It's the humans against the bug.
When humans fight one another over it, the bug wins.
The bug will continue to win until humans come together to fight it in a unified way.
We do not know how long protections from a vaccine will last.
It is entirely possible that the bug will evolve resistance to our vaccines.
We are in a race to get enough humans vaccinated to stop the spread of COVID-19 before that occurs.
Humans who fight the logical measures out of selfishness are acting on the side of the enemy in this war.
