This is what happens when people don't pay attention in school then go on to think that their opinion is somehow knowledgable.
I'll save you all the trouble: it's more internet crap based on misunderstandings and lousy inferences and incomplete education - coupled with a lot of spare time.
Folks want to believe that they somehow have figured it all out, and they know the real secret that They Don't Want You To Know⢠but that's just because they start from a place of needing some sort of ego boost. So they want to think they're smarter (not) and influential (not) and therefore their lives are significant (not).
One of the many bad things the Internet led to was this need to be on screen as opposed to enjoying your life. "I'm not on camera? Then I'm irrelevant!" The truth is - you will be irrelevant. Because, a hundred years from now, you will not be remembered. We tell people they're special, but they're not. And that lifts a tremendous burden.
So get out there and enjoy a fresh peach, hike a beautiful trail, sit around and talk with friends.
I didn't say "always," but was referring to real-time observations of transmissibility (up) vs virulence (down, generally), which may yet be refuted as pointed out in the article: Covid is most transmissible before symptoms set in, so it really doesn't care if it kills its host.

Isn't the general consensus that it'll settle into being something annoying and fairly ubiquitous like a cold but not something we will ever eradicate? Or is that the ideal?
Until covid-23 arrives, second verse: same as the first.
i'd say yes or tend to agree
i think i remember reading about the law of declining virulence
not always but viral evolution is usually avirulent or eventually endemic
disclaimer: remember i'm not your doctor!
bottom line is that it escapes most of the current antibodies
however doesn't look like it is more virulent

is the "nightmare" variant worthy of its name?
wb looks at the pre-print
doesn't take into account b cells, t cells, etc.
