I’m sure @dgurdasani1 will correct me if wrong, but the message isn’t that Covid is inevitable or we must eliminate it.
We will get better at treating it and perhaps tolerating it (immune wise).
But to pursue a vaccine only strategy when herd immunity is not assured is wrong.

Deepti and others have IMO been right: the least global impact would be (and is) to eliminate SARS-CoV2.
The world has not been united enough, at least not yet, to achieve this. And our leaders have lacked the vision to even consider it.

Perhaps it raises important questions about our processes and systems, if we have the power to prevent an infectious disease with a similar mortality as Endemic Malaria from becoming established and have chosen not to.
Without a global strategy to eliminate it, I still consider our best option is to significantly expand our capacity to treat it.
