How do you think this will end now?

Sorry if there's been a post on here already, I can't see it.
So if we vaccinate all the groups he said by February.
What do you think will happen next?

Will there ever be a need for lockdowns again do you think?

Will summer be relatively normal...

Not anxious about it, but I do keep seeing people online like Neil Clark who keep saying this will be life forever. Honestly can't see that, nor understand it.

The way this virus is mutating makes me wonder.
Diid it really come about from a wet market. Or were some scientists messing about in that laboaratory in Wuhan, created a super virus that somehow got out into the general population?
I expect well never know.

Viruses have a chance of mutating each time they find a new host. There's been 100s of Covid strains and it's unlucky that 2 strains (UK and South African strain ) has evolved. While they are more transmissable it is fortunate that they aren't more deadly.
The vaccines are designed in the knowledge that there are multiple strains and could be more in future. Hopefully scientists will be able to confirm that current vaccines are effective against the 2 strains.

Thought scientists had said the vaccine likely to be effective against the UK mutant strain but with regards to the SA one, the protein spikes were significantly different to give cause for concern that the vaccine might not work.

It may be that international travel never returns to the freedoms previously enjoyed.
