They call for national health agencies and the World Health Organization to spend more time at least analyzing the feasibility and “desirability” of eradicating COVID-19, especially because there is “unprecedented global interest” in making this virus go away.. but most think the delta variant has made herd immunity impossible. Given all of that, “the vast majority of experts in the public health and epidemiology space really get the sense that ― at this point, with the contagiousness of the delta variant and how prevalent COVID remains ― herd immunity is not possible any longer,” Iahn Gonsenhauser, chief quality and patient safety officer at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, told HuffPost this week. When we shift from ‘crisis mode’ to ‘a new normal’ depends on when people get vaccinated While most public health and infectious disease experts are coalescing around the idea that COVID-19 isn’t going anywhere, they also think we’ll eventually be able to get back to relative normalcy. “They’re recognizing the impact.” “The response of the research and medical community to this brand-new virus — sequencing it, figuring out what it does, coming up with a vaccine and some treatment — has just been miraculous.” - John Bradley, medical director, division of infectious diseases, Rady Children's Hospital And Chin-Hong noted that masking, while certainly still divisive in much of the country, has become an aspect of everyday life in a way that positions us to better adapt to other diseases when they arise.
