I don't think we'll ever get even close to zero. I think we'll see recurrent "surges" that behave like seasonal flu. At some point it will be just another bug, and the vaccinations will be packaged with our flu shots, or at least offered concurrently.

- chrismcb 6y agoI'm not sure I understand this comment. It's not like the rest of the world is going to eliminate covid and the us isn't.
