The only way out of a lockdown is either mass vaccination/herd immunity or unfortunately mortality on a larger scale.
Covid 19 like other viruses will now be around for the foreseeable future. It will require an annual vaccination similar to the annual flu vaccine to lessen the impact of contagion.
Vaccines are the answer. It’s a shame those who could have sourced vaccines much sooner, didn’t do because money is prioritized before life by those people.
