To be fair, many people had pointed out that unless we vaccinate the entire world, new variants would emerge, which may be better at evading the vaccine. That is exactly what happened with Omicron.
In a few decades, coronavirus may actually end up being just as lethal as the flu! One can hope, at least.
> Take-home message:
> - The idea that viruses always evolve to become less lethal because it is advantageous to them is an old theory that has been shown to be wrong
Thank you for correcting a misconception of mine! :D
