Everyone is Going to Get Covid, Experts Say
Medical experts are saying that everyone is going to get Covid, regardless of vaccination status.
“The idea that we’re going to live our lives without ever getting it is a fantasy — and a dangerous one, a lot of people just don’t understand that. We’re all going to get it.”
-Andrew Noymer, an epidemiologist and demographer at UC Irvine
Experts are saying that due to the contagiousness of the Delta variant, the pandemic will likely turn endemic, meaning it will not go away.
Covid-19 is here to stay like the flu, most likely with a spike in cases in certain seasons.
The Covid-19 vaccine does not prevent you from catching covid and does not prevent you from spreading covid.
It is still said to decrease your risk of hospitalization or death from Covid, but then again so does a healthy immune system.
