The debates are going on about Covid-19 and the earliest possibility of getting a vaccine to combat it. But shockingly, some researchers are saying that the arrival of vaccine may not put a permanent end to the virus.
"Why the world has imposed lockdown? Is that to fight the virus by keeping it away from its prey? No not all. The lockdowns and "stay at home" slogans are designed only to slow down the spread so that the hospitals are not overwhelmed", says Dr Tony, a pandemic scholar from New York.
The American researchers say, "Covid-19 is not going to go away with our "stay at home" slogans. It has come into our lives and will stay with us. There will also be incidents of periodic outbreaks and we need to be prepared by all means.
Many may assume that the arrival of vaccine may put a full stop for this virus. That will not happen like the climax scene in a film. It may take decades to make entire population immune to this disease.
The efficiency of vaccine, if any, also has to be taken into account. There are chances that the virus may mutate and become immune to the vaccine we bring in first place".
So, there is no other option for the world than to live with it taking serious precautions and getting prepared with more hospitals and quarantine infrastructure.
The world is in war mode and this is not ending up soon.
