I think you're a bit quick on the trigger there. If I want to live a few more years in fear? I've probably traveled to more countries during the pandemic than 99.999% of the people on the planet. Let people live their lives? Did I miss the part where I suggested people can't?
I simply stated:
> It's clear that vaccines are not going to "end the pandemic".
"End the pandemic" is in quotes for a reason. It's obvious that this virus is going to be endemic, if it isn't close to already. Given time, it will almost certainly become another cold-causing coronavirus.
None of this means that having prophylactic antivirals is a bad thing, especially right now for high-risk individuals who have been vaccinated but are more likely to have bad breakthrough infections. If anything, having more treatment options available will make it harder to justify restrictions that negatively impact the lives of the majority who are at lower risk to begin with.
