There's lots of talk about the second wave of illness/death from Covid-19. Some say it's coming. Some say we're in the second wave already because the first wave started in December '19 or even before.
Irrespective of that, it seems there are two options coming up.
One is there is a vaccine that works against Covid-19. Seems like a long-shot for at least two reasons: 1. The virus is mutating, so which strain is the vaccine for? 2. The cold virus (rhinovirus) is a Corona virus, yet there is no vaccine for that. Is that because the cold virus keeps mutating?
Two without a vaccine does that mean we all will eventually get Covid-19? And for those in the vulnerable groups, does that mean they have to continue to social distance and wear masks, etc., for the rest of their lives?
The future of this thing has me stumped. I hope there are other ways forward from here.
