Covid is waning as a risk to society and the economy. Yesterday, Dr Scott Gottlieb spoke on CNBC. He said that in the US the population immunity level-vaccinations plus prior infections -is over 80 percent against Covid. Moreover, by year end, two or more anti viral oral therapeutics will be available. The therapeutics would not prevent Covid, but they would act effectively against the virus when a person contracted Covid or when a person is at very high risk of contracting Covid because of close proximity with an infected person. Gottlieb said both Merck and also Pfizer would soon bring therapeutics to the market.
