It absolutely will end in your lifetime. By this time next year it will be over and likely several months before that.


I wonder when you first predicted the end of coronavirus, and what date you predicted it ending by.

Is it worth searching back through your posts to check your prophetic abilities, do you think?

And you base this on what data? Or is this just like Trump saying it would magically disappear by Easter 2020?

I said he should calm down, not that he should have a panic attack in the opposite direction like you have been doing for more than a year.

Depends on what you mean by "end." The coronavirus can't be eradicated, it was already too late to do that by January 2020.

Enough people will eventually either get vaccinated or get sick and recover that huge waves will no longer be possible. The virus will continue in smaller clusters.

How societies choose to deal with those clusters remains to be seen.

I thought he didn't believe in recall elections? Am I thinking of someone else?

But either way, I will have you know that viruses are very popular. People might say they don't like us, but those same people are catching us and giving us to all their friends.

His predictions lined up correctly with how long the restrictions became needed for, and given that seems to be the part of the pandemic he has an issue with...
