At the present time, most of us are suffering from the effects of the global spread of the Corona virus, and everyone wants Corona to stop mutating, for this epidemic to end completely and life to return to normal, says Dr. Michael Osterholm, Director of the Center. For Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota: "The virus will not go away and the way to protect against it is to get three full doses." Infectious disease experts have revealed when the pandemic will end
1 - Evolution of the virus
Dr. Sirhat Gumrko, an expert in infectious diseases and a scientific researcher, said: “All viruses evolve through many mutations that occur when they are transmitted from one host to another. The Corona virus has already gone through several mutations, but not all variants were able to penetrate the human immunity barrier, with An increase in the rate of fully vaccinated individuals, along with the recently approved COVID-19 drugs, we may be able to reach an endemic phase with this virus while also learning to live with it, and so, there are many factors at play. There is a role in guessing an exact end date - very similar to the flu that appears every year. However, with all the advances we are making with Corona vaccines and drug treatments, Corona may end up being less of a threat in the coming years.
2- Variables will prolong the epidemic
A threat anywhere is a threat to everyone and that's what we're seeing now with the omicron variant," said Dr. Gwen Murphy, Executive Director of Epidemiology at LetsGetChecked. As long as the coronavirus is circulating somewhere in the world, there is a risk of developing a variant that avoids vaccines, so getting fully vaccinated around the world should be a priority. In addition, we know that people who have been vaccinated can still catch and transmit the virus, so we need to get used to social distancing being a part of life right now.
3 - What can people do to help end the pandemic?
"Other than getting vaccinated, there's nothing people can do to help end a pandemic, expecting that if you don't get vaccinated you will catch COVID-19 at some point, like it or not," said Dr. Robert J. Lahita, director of the Institute for Autoimmune and Rheumatic Diseases at Saint Joseph Health.
4 - 2023 could be the year
Dr Robert says: “I think it will become a pandemic by 2023, which should be enough time to vaccinate more people and build up immunity that enables the epidemic to become endemic, like influenza, with annual injections for everyone without further restrictions. I also hope it continues.” People know how their immune systems work and what will make them stronger, and diet and exercise contribute to reducing stress and strengthening the immune system.
