Why wouldn’t I post a pro vaccine article?

Very strange reply.

not really. You prove that almost a year of vaccines are pushing this horrible virus from a pandemic to a manageable condition in most.

Which has nothing to with what I originally posted.
You’ve commented a few times on aberdude saying that Covid will be like the common cold by next spring (you’ve done this a few times if I remember rightly). I then backed this up with a statement by two leading scientists, which was shown by several main stream sources.

It’s not looking like they were right like, but yeah it was said by a few.

No one knows mate, spring is a long way off. Just find it strange that an opinion from experts can be dismissed so readily by someone who has taken great pride in ‘following expert and scientific advice.’

Those quotes were from September, no? They also spoke about weakening variants and dropping infection rates, not panned out so well in the months since that has it? Unless losing 1000+ a week is akin to the common cold, I reckon they were making assumptions about the number who’d be vaccinated that it doesn’t seem will come to pass.
 
The idea that it becomes more like a common cold comes from constant exposure to it. Vaccination or previous infections enable the body to learn how to fight it quickly and effectively without it becoming a serious illness. Therefore symptoms lessen.

Various scientific research suggest that the virus is reaching its limits of evolution and we probably won't see another 'delta' variant popping up and having the same global impact. Yes there will be variants but not the dramatic jump in infection rates.

It's hoped and expected that covid 19 will eventually settle down just like the other coronavirus that affect humans in to nothing more than a common cold. The bad news on that is that it may take decades for it to fizzle out that much.

As we’ve seen earlier in the year though, cases and deaths can fall very quickly.
We saw 1500 deaths a day in January, fall to 50 a day in April. With the amount of vaccines and boosters given out compared to back then, I can see reason to be cautiously optimistic about 2022.

Hopefully more and more will take the vaccine and we’ll see it drop off, but I still think the idea that this virus will be weakened to the point it’s no more dangerous than the common cold by next Spring, is for the birds.
