Will we ever live in a world without Covid-19? The answer is no!”. As the pandemic enters its third year, many people are wondering if and when Covid-19 will become endemic. That horizon is still a long way off… and Covid-19 will always be with us, according to Gregory Poland, who studies vaccine-response immunogenetics at the Mayo Clinic, in an interview with the website ‘MarketWatch’.
Measles, a highly contagious airborne virus transmitted through coughing and sneezing, is a good starting point for comparison. It is a stable and non-changing virus, without variants. Thus, measles was virtually eradicated from the United States. Can Covid-19 follow in the footsteps of measles?
“We hope that one day [o sarampo] be eradicated. Can this happen with the coronavirus? No, it won’t,” explained Poland. “We are not yet at a stage where we can predict endemicity. We are not going to eradicate it. We even have examples in the animal kingdom – white-tailed deer in the United States, among others – that are infected with SARS-CoV-2 ″, she reinforced.
“I can make a prediction, which will be difficult for all of us to confirm because we will all be dead by then, but my grandchildren’s grandchildren’s grandchildren will still be being immunized against the coronavirus,” he added. “How can I say such a thing? If you already received your flu shot in the last campaign, know that you were immunized against a strain of flu that appeared in 1918 and that caused a pandemic.”
