After summer 2022 I think it dies way down to a dull roar. People will still be getting sick and even dying, but hospitalizations and deaths in much much lower numbers.
Two big surges coming. One about to start now (March) and again in the summer (late June, July, August) and then it dies down not nearly as bad in December as last year.
That’s been my guess for a while. We’ll see.
I think we still will be taking some measure beyond that to prevent spread. I hope so. I hope flu season we continue to mask more and mask on planes.
