The epidemic will be over when COVID-19 IFR will drop below acceptable level, even when SARS-CoV-2 will continue to circulate. I.e. when covid will be like regular fly, nobody will worry about it anymore.

There are two main strategies to achieve low death rate:
1) Natural — let weak people die. Cheap.
2) Semi-natural — let weak people to be infected, then try to rescue them. Costly.
3) Supportive — support weak people with vaccines, to help them survive. Costly, but cheaper than (2).
