Corona will still be infecting millions of people long after all of us are dead. Every year there will be many Corona deaths, as from influenza. The pandemic is over, and has been since May 2020. The virus is endemic & has settled into a typical coronavirus seasonality.

No viruses have ever been eradicated via lame ‚social distancing‘ measures. With viruses like polio and smallpox, we had essentially escape-proof vaccines. That‘s not even close to being the case here.

Agreed. Scared elderly people, they can see that the authorities are incompetent (eg vaccine production; flipflops on masks, travel bans, border closings...) but that makes them even more fearful, and willing to support unlimited repressive measures.

One of the paradoxes of this thing is that the very incompetence of the authorities has actually empowered them. The worse things go, the more frightened people get, and the more they defer to "authorities".
