According to an analyst on Bloomberg TV:
Apparently the virus is going to burn through the entire world, infecting everyone who isn't vaccinated or immune. The virus is expected to spread dangerously during the next six months [presumably during winter in the Northern Hemisphere].
The virus cases go up and down, and they're currently leveling off, but that's expected to be temporary. It's expected that there will be further variants that will spread more quickly or be more deadly, or will be not be controlled by vaccines. The worst case scenario - and this is rare -- is that the virus will mutate into a variant that kills a lot of people.
We're already at 4.5 Million deaths worldwide and climbing. I don't think we need to wait for a killer varient, More than one has already emerged. One that mandates a new vaccine is the big worry. We can't get the idiots vaccinated now, and getting them to accept a newer vaccine for more varients is a fools errand ... in this country, at least.
For the totally fractured US, assume the worst. You'll be less disappointed that way.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
