It’s just the flu, bro.
I assume that the future of Coronavirus will fall somewhere between these two extremes: 1. It will be endemic due to mutations and it will appear primarily in the winter months, and 2. It will slowly fizzle out as herd immunity is approached due to previous infections and vaccinations.
Regardless of which one of the above scenarios happens, the media response will be just as intense. Infrequent cases and deaths just means the media can do a more in depth analysis of each person who catch the virus - each story will be painted as a tragedy that could happen to anyone if we aren’t careful. Ideally there would be people dying under the age of 80 as that causes more panic.
You want evidence that the number of Coronavirus cases no longer matters? Just look at this story from Queensland, Australia.

Queensland has 5 million people, yet they are panicked over 3 cases and debating a lockdown.
One case or a million cases the answer is the same for many people - lockdown, social distance, wear masks and vaccinate.

“If we follow the current trajectory, there will not be a single part of our lives that is completely controlled by a multinational corporation in the next few years.””””
