Do you think the pandemic will be over with Omicron? (lemmy.ml)

Of course the virus itself won't disappear but hopefully all measures limiting our daily lives.

Personally I think Omicron is the last variant of concern and as many countries have agreed on it's fortunately not dangerous enough for restrictions to make sense anymore.

I don't think a new more dangerous variant will emerge. If it did, I'd think that to be rather suspicious.

A pandemic that isn't created naturally won't go away until:

  1. Either decisive action is taken against agents that created it;
  2. Or the purpose of the agents that created the pandemic is more or less fulfilled.

The first criteria is obviously not fulfilled as yet, and clear understanding of the second is missing. So my guess is that the pandemic will continue.

EDIT : better wording
