There’s a good chance the coronavirus will never go away.

Even after a vaccine is discovered and deployed, the coronavirus will likely remain for decades to come, circulating among the world’s population.

Experts call such diseases endemic — stubbornly resisting efforts to stamp them out. Think measles, HIV, chickenpox.

When will the Washington Post go away? I think that is a more important question for the future of the country.

What flu vaccine has been even majority effective? Most are only partly effective because the virus mutates rapidly and the variety for which the vaccine is the prophylactic has been replaced or augmented by the NEW! NEW! model by the time it is launched. it will be the same for the Chinese Communist Flu.

Has any virus ever completely gone away? The plague that devastated Europe in the Middle Ages still resides in rodent populations in various places.

The only rational response to the title is “So what?”

Also think: liberalism, communism, socialism. Those mental diseases are more deadly than the viruses.

We can live with the virus.
Most have.
We cannot live with liberals.
And sooner or later we’ll have to take care of that.

"This article makes no sense, and I don’t get it"

That happens whenever there's more than one writer on an article. They can't get their stories straight.

The entire point of Anthony Fauci's Gain Of Function experiment in the Wuhan laboratory was to make a coronavirus as invasive, deadly, and contagious as it could be.

It is designed to plague the world for a long time.

Additionally, it is intended to pave the way for the Genetic Code Virus that Bill Gates calls an mRNA vaccine.

Covid Inc. is here to stay, and as farcical as it is lucrative, it is quickly turning into a global scale taxpayer subsidized industry just like the great global warming hoax.

“non-essential/irrelevant

You learn to live with these diseases, how to avoid them, and how to treat them.

Seldom do we cure anything!
