We have seen a stronger correlation with seasonality and case numbers than we have with masks. So far, it is the strongest correlation factor we have with regards to infection.

Our government is saying that widespread distribution will be around April, when one million doses per week will arrive in the country

This will coincide with the seasonality of the virus

Reduction in case numbers will be attributed to the efficacy of the vaccine

Similarly, now they’re saying that previous infection provides immunity for about 5 months before you can be reinfected again. I see no reason the vaccine would provide superior long term immunity

We’ll see case numbers rise again toward the winter of 2021, it’ll be attributed to waning immunity, you’ll need your booster shot. Society will be blamed for insufficient uptake of the vaccine.

I fear the cycle will go on forever
