No one thinks it’s going to magically disappear. People need to start reading up and start understanding what the words “pandemic” and “endemic” mean. Covid-19 is a virus and like other viruses, it will never go away or be completely eradicated. However, at this point in time, we’re in the “pandemic” phase of this virus. As infections + vaccinations increase (and assuming no underlying genetic changes to the virus that make the vaccines unusable or infection-based immunity useless), we are going to reach a point where there is no longer exponential or unmitigated spread. As this occurs, we’ll start to exit from the pandemic phase to endemic phase. Meaning, there will be covid-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths but nothing like now. Controllable. Livable. And trying to get back to what we used to know pre March 2020. Again, no one is saying it’s completely disappearing.

I feel you. It’s been such a nightmare. My perspective - Whenever I feel overwhelmed I think about how previous generations faced much worse (not diminishing other people’s covid nightmares and losses tho!). Even tho I was scraping by for 8 months before landing a freelance gig, I feel grateful that at least I’ve managed to live a mostly normal life and have been healthy - I also have clean water, toilet paper!, cheese, my cat, friends/family, a car that works, and a surfboard. Hang in there, friend. We’ll get through this! Wishing you a happy, healthy new year. 💖

That’s a great perspective!
I mean... it didn’t magically disappear after the US election either, so the odds aren’t looking good for you! (Relax people, it’s a joke).
Eventually we will learn to live with it. Like the world also did with all pandemics of the past. There will indeed come, somewhere in time, a point that it will still be there but will cause less harm. We can not do anything else then deal with it and make the best out of it.

I hope we’ll have widespread vaccination so no one has the severe version of the disease and it becomes more like the regular flu
People don’t think it’s going to magically disappear- they’re just trying to be hopeful after a terrible year. There’s nothing wrong with that.

Didn’t happen
It’s not that big of a deal lol. Live your life.
My dad went to the ER last week, but sure, "lol"

We should've moved on from it back in April, but some people love the control.
