It will be a combination of (re)infections and vaccines that means our bodies will "learn" and remember CV type viruses even if they do mutate. If similar enough we will have some protection and we will learn that new "stage".


What we mustn't have is fear because that allows those in charge to bring in rules/legislation etc that we normally won't tolerate and some of those will be very hard to remove later. Those with power like to exercise it and keep it.


1. Remote/hybrid working - this will (hopefully) remain.
2. Travel testing - this needs to be better focussed, cheaper and much faster. It will be really hard to do if we go back to millions of Brits heading to the Med for a week in the sun. When/where/how do you test and what do you do with non-negative tests?


Really unless we get a mutation that is so different to what has been experienced in the past and leads to high hospitalisations/deaths etc that some action in needed we really are going to have to learn to live with this. It will become less novel, population immunity will improve and develop.
