COVID-19 Discussion Thread

There's a lot of vaccination to do first and then it takes time for the virus to slowly get down to manageable levels more like the flu. So far the vaccines aren't confirmed to prevent spread of the disease just getting sick from it so until far fewer people are getting sick and spreading it, it's going to hang around.

I think 2021 will see more internal travel within countries and it won't be until at least 2022 before international travel picks up properly. A big concern is making sure poorer countries, who are often heavily populated, get access to the vaccine.

But overall, I think it will be more like the flu, with people having to get regular shots and the virus mutating every year or so forcing new vaccines to be released to keep people safe.
