So, a mild illness which mostly requires no medical intervention is to get a vaccine which is designed to do very little.

 

And everyone - in government at least - is going to pretend that this is a wonder drug which has saved humanity from a modern plague.

 

Sensemaking has hit a new low, it seems.

A disease that is very "mild" for 99% of those infected, and fatal for 1%, and is extremely contagious, is not "mild" in its effects on society.  If a 100 million people catch it, 1 million people who would not have died, will die.  This is a massive death toll, and a lot of human misery.

 

A vaccine that prevents death, even if it does not prevent infection, is therefore still extremely valuable though far from ideal. 

 

What is more, just because vaccines may be approved that do not prevent infection, does not mean:

 

(a) that the vaccines are designed to not prevent infection - of course the hope of every group working on vaccines is that their vaccine will prevent infection.

 

(b) that no vaccine that can prevent infection will ever be developed -there are literally  hundreds of groups trying to develop vaccines, by a variety of technologies and designs, and the approval of one, (especially if does not prevent infection) will not halt the endeavours to develop others that do prevent infection.

Your stats are not correct.  IFR is around .2-.3%, not 1%.

The WHO estimates that 10% of the global population have contracted sars cov 2 which means the IFR would be 0.14%,which is equivalent to the normal flu.So it looks like turning out to be just the flu just like some have been saying all along and they have also been saying Beware the Cure!

History may show that the "cure" was worse than the disease.
