Re: “The numbers are much, much lower than expected.”

Less than a week ago, the CDC publicly stated that 5% to 8% of the USA population is - or has been - infected with COVID-19.

The confirmed infection rate for USA 35.5 million PCR tests - spread across four months - is 8.1%.

To my eye, the USA and Europe all look like they are in the 10% to 15% total population infection rate.

Hopefully, SARS 2 will mutate itself out of existence just like SARS 1 did.

Highly effective vaccines for common cold viruses like coronavirus are still decades in the future, if ever.

I hope the Wuhanvirus/covid sars2 disappears also; I don’t want the deepstate/Dems/RINOs making a vaccine mandatory .

” Highly effective vaccines for common cold viruses like coronavirus are still decades in the future, if ever. “

A reasonable position, but maybe the covid hysteria will drive an RNA virus ‘cure’?
Would be great. Improvement of lifetimes would show in just a year.

If the flu was new we’d be scared out of our minds. A terrible disease.
