The predictions of the upcoming six months are not so great
Predictions vs reality
The scientist’s predictions about the pandemic ending in the next six months are not so accurate. The new reports are the opposite of ending. The experts worldwide agree about the fast rate of vaccination that the countries are going through.
However, it is not fast enough to outrun the pandemic. Reports say at the end of six months, most of us would either be fully vaccinated or infected by the virus or even both.
The vaccination process is yet to make a remarkable figure; however, it’s impossible to get everyone vaccinated in the short span of six months.
Even if more people start to get vaccinated, it would still be a problem for newborn babies and those who can’t take the vaccines or those who just won’t, making the risks of the mutation higher.
This new population and the ones not vaccinated would lead to an outbreak of the virus in public places, transports, schools and everywhere it can mutate as the world unlocks itself.
Without a doubt, the following months will be the hardest as every country tries to fight the virus. One of the most significant fears hovering everyone’s minds is what if a vaccine resisting variant arrives.
As much as the fear stands true, the only solution one can provide at the moment is vaccination.
According to a report by Lone Simonsen, an epidemiologist and professor of population health sciences at Roskilde University in Denmark on the pandemics over 130 years, the most prolonged virus outbreaks for about five years in the past with two to three variations.
But the covid already came out with three variations in its one year alone, which is dangerous.
The other outbreaks
The study also focuses on the history of viruses and how the chances of another variant are usually low, and that’s why the covid breakouts at the various levels were unthought-of.
Even though line Simonsen claims that the following variants are traditionally less mutating than its predecessors, it’s hard to say the same for coronavirus. Each variant of that breakthrough has been more potent than the previous one.
Nations with less percentage of vaccinated persons would be severely affected by the breakthrough of the virus and therefore would increase the cases overall.
It will also increase the probability of a new variant to breakthrough and further worsening the instances.
Hope
So, it is evident that the virus for sure isn’t diminishing in the next six months, as many experts had predicted. But vaccination drives need to be continued to lessen the effects of it we are to survive.
Even if the virus does not eradicate, it can be bought down to non-existent statuses if we work towards it. The time of it decreasing will be different n different places, as happened in other viruses.
Even if the government wants to eradicate covid from the very root, it won’t be possible, and they will have to live with a certain amount of this virus forever.
