Dystopian future: this or a future virus has no vaccine. But some survivors develop long-term resistance. Green zones become the new aspirational geographies, but don’t want to carry health costs for rest. Frequent antibody testing. If your resistance fades you get kicked out.

Plot twist: something else comes along and the vulnerabilities are reversed. Team Wilderness is now on the upside as things go bad for the Greens (fall of Rome redux)

You need a theme about how the immune are taking advantage of the vulnerable masses. Class is too easy, maybe the Green are infertile without interbreeding, and children are 50/50? Family hiding a Red kid? Or if secret split twins are the protagonists the YA will write itself.

The reason these dystopias are uniformly boring crap is because they mindlessly barf up the shibboleths of our society. Make them more interesting by flipping some of those shibboleths! 1/

The overlap between "survivors developing long-term resistance" and "no vaccine is possible" is probably very small, based on my full month's worth of casual virology learnings.

I’ve been thinking how to use Airbnb’s to create an “immunity community”. You’d need to find a cluster in a gated community or cul de sac. Basically put in measures they have in China but self police in a gated community where everyone’s been tested.
