It's interesting that they've already begun work on a booster for this variant. We're about to cross over a threshold whereby new flu vaccines come out each year to protect against the new strains. I view this as a really positive development and would expect the other pharma companies to do the same.[/quote]

Hmm, so basically, with all the new potential variants, it seems like it's possible COVID19 will be here to stay? And we'll need new vaccines year after year?
Not thrilled about that, but if we have vaccines hopefully it will be manageable[/quote]

Yes, I think that was always the expectation. It'll become endemic but more harmless over time.[/quote]

I disagree slightly- it’s not at all settled science that we’ll need new vaccines every year. Maybe we will, maybe we will only needs new ones every so often (or never again)[/quote]

Fair enough.It's certainly not settled science in any regard.[/quote]
