The Road Ahead?

Nothing much new to report this week as the global Covid-19 pandemic continues its transition into endemicity. The total non-Chinese death toll is now down to about 1,000 per day, and even China is probably back under 2,000 daily deaths now according to Airfinity's model — though even they have now stopped trying to update their earlier projections. Hopefully these trends continue on into the future and we can eventually consign Covid to a status similar to that of the seasonal flu with annual booster shots to help keep it contained; although for the scores of millions of survivors still suffering from the effects of long-covid, that may seem like a rather hollow victory.
