"Do you think the pandemic is over? And if so, why continue to get vaccinated as we go from pandemic to endemic?”
So we are going to eventually get into an endemic phase where we have the disease without these horrible spikes. But a couple of points. We're not there yet. The other point I think is you should never bet against the virus.
So I've spent about 20 years trying to guess what's gonna happen with influenza season on season. And I'm always wrong. It's not just me. Everyone's always wrong. And the point is that there's incredible evolutionary pressure for the virus to find a way to keep replicating.
