I've been wondering what's in store for us in the years ahead, and specifically if, after the Omicron peak, we will be going back to the Delta virus again. I'm happy to say that one of the sanest voices on the topic of Covid says "No".
Here once again is my Covid guru, Dr.John Campbell, explaining in detail some new graphics, and towards the end, answering my question:
Bottom line if you don't want to watch it all:
After Omicron, Delta will be gone and any other worse mutation is very unlikely to arise. Covid will be an endemic health risk no worse than flu; i.e. it will kill a certain number of the old and vulnerable each year, but will not impact our lives beyond that. So, cautiously, Great News!! (plus apologies to the old and vulnerable)
