It worked out well for them, probably better than expected they now have the world populations by the balls. Just the mention of another strain and panic ensues, just what the doctor ordered.People will continue to get exhausted mentally and physically until they give up and look to them to be saved, they won

As with other types of coronavirus, there’s going to be a new type of COVID every year — so we can have masks and social distancing forever.

And so it will continue, forever. A new strain, a new virus... any and all, are now all the tyrants need to control every aspect of your life. Well done, selfish, handwringing fearbros.

Let's put a different spin on this for a moment. Whether or not we decide to take the vaccine, no one expected a vaccine in less than one year. It is like deciding to send astronauts to Mars in January and launching them safely on their journey by the end of the year.

Trump's "Operation Warp Speed" completely upended the apple cart on this one. They have about 3 months to have their mayhem before having to move on to something else entirely. Whether by inoculation or infection, Covid-19 is defeated and that was not an expected victory in that kind of time frame. I would suspect that they thought they were going to be able to get rid of National distinctions altogether in the decade long battle expected against Covid-19. All that is down the toilet now, completely disrupted by Trump.

Think of it this way. At the beginning of this we were all going to die in line waiting for a respirator. That didn't last long. Same thing for the vaccine where our loved ones and ourselves would most likely die waiting on the "gold standard" of solutions, the vaccine, and turn around and the vaccine is already here. Game over. Well done DJT!

Well we have different strains of the flu every year so it makes sense.
