In 2022, the world may begin to hope that life before the coronavirus epidemic can return soon, he said. Dr. Soumya Swaminathan, principal investigator at the World Health Organization (WHO) in Geneva on Tuesday.
As said, in 2022, we can get to the point where enough people are vaccinated with the vaccine, making the masses immune to the disease.
Therefore, the precautions that apply now, including distance, hygiene and the use of masks, must be maintained for a long time.
He said in an online conference.
He said that although there will be a vaccine, at least 60-70 percent of the population will have to be vaccinated, only then will there be a significant decrease in the spread of infection.
Now we don’t even know how long these vaccines will provide protection. This is one of the most important questions: how long does immunity last?
He asked, adding that it is not out of the question that people have to be vaccinated over and over from time to time.
Swaminathan also spoke about trying to control the coronavirus at this time, not wanting to eradicate it from the world.
Although it is difficult to make estimates, I can say with certainty that we can start thinking in 2022 at the earliest that life before the coronavirus epidemic may soon return.
He pointed.
