> It's sad that we had the opportunity to do so via vaccination but failed to capitalize We likely never had this opportunity; omicron spreads too well and evades existing vaccines too well. The good vaccines are down to ~50% effective, and omicron is 2x as contagious as delta. There was a short window between vaccines getting approved and delta that heroic vaccination campaign could have worked. And I mean heroic. It would have literally had to be 90% of the world population in a few months. Factories never could have scaled to the point, there'd never be enough public trust to hit 90%, and too many countries are incapable of running a campaign like this.
