I think it will be with us for a long time but not as bad. I have heard the Johnson and Johnson vaccine will really help with things. And yes we will need to get shots every year but we do that with the flu shot too. Masks may be a thing for a long time. Especially on airplanes and at concerts and other large events. But people in parts of the world have been wearing masks for a long time. I do think things will get better. I really do. I try not to watch a lot of the news or read it much.
