Yes, but every other disease does not shut down the world for 2+ years and does not cost $trillions to deal with. It's not like the flu: it's not seasonal so there is no break in the Summer, vaccines barely working, it's much more contagious, and it affects world's productivity in a very substantial way. We got lucky with Omicron's being very mild. What will happen with the next variant? Who is working on the real solution?

Other treatment options have generally been very difficult. Best success story for non vaccine treatment is probably AIDS, and that took decades. Its not for lack of trying.
