Most governments in the West kept the lockdowns into place until late spring 2021, when the mass vaccination campaign was well underway.
Vaccination has been the main pillar of the government health response while doctors were discouraged from experimenting and using early treatments.
If corona vaccination becomes periodical like flu vaccination, it would become a highly lucrative business worth hundreds of billions of US dollars for the Big Pharma.
Government health experts touted mass vaccination as the only way to cut the transmission of the virus and overcome the pandemic.
In any case, the rapid spread of the delta variant in countries with high vaccination rates has raised serious doubts about whether mass vaccination could end the pandemic, in particular if vaccine efficacy drops to worrisome levels after about six months and both the vaccinated and unvaccinated can show similarly high viral loads of the delta variant that are able to spread around.
If covid-19 vaccines have more therapeutic benefits rather than stopping the infection, then how could herd immunity ever be achieved? And if herd immunity cannot be reached, why segregate people by vaccination status or vaccinate children and teenagers, who are known not to get seriously ill from covid-19? These are relevant questions also due to the large number of immediate severe adverse affects and deaths linked to covid-19 vaccination in the US and the EU, and potential long-term side effects entailed by the use of relatively new vaccine technologies.
Many health authorities continue pushing for mandatory mass vaccination.
