You realize this will not get us to zero Covid?

You’re basically trying to stamp out the common cold (same virus, Covid-19 being more severe) which has been with us..forever?



Not the same virus, but a similar virus.

As much as we would like to wish, Covid is not going to become the common cold anytime soon, or indeed ever. We should act according to what we see with Covid, and understand that any naïve attempts reduce it to other known pathogens can only lead us into tragedy.
