It feels you think I have an answer, just that I'm not willing to share it with you. I don't have an answer, but that doesn't mean I must accept or like yours.

It feels you think I have an answer, just that I'm not willing to share it with you. I don't have an answer, but that doesn't mean I must accept or like yours.
The approach I described (home quarantine & testing regime for people arriving from overseas) is tenable and not too controversial - certainly much more palatable, and probably more effective, than the current (enforced hotel quarantine). Would need to be combined with proper deterrents for idiots wilfully subverting that process (we have been objectively atrocious at implementing or enforcing legal deterrents for anti-social behaviour on the COVID front).
Over the 24-48 month period you're demanding an answer for - my naive expectation is twofold. Many populations will have delta sweep through well within that period, resulting in large demographics of delta-immune people. (Note - this doesn't mean I want to live in such a place, just that it will happen.)
Second, we'll have booster & variant-specific vaccinations developed within that time, possibly with nasal delivery - meaning very fast, less contentious (higher uptake), and probably cheap.
