Sounds brilliant and I hope it works out like that. I was reading something the other day though which makes me think it is unlikely. The problem is that Covid doesn’t work in the same way as the flu. Each iteration of the flu evolves from the last one. With Covid it’s not working out like that. Variants are emerging around the world but not necessarily as an iteration of the previous one eg omicron didn’t evolve from delta. What that means is that the next variant to come along could be a lot more lethal than omicron and just as infectious or it could be even less dangerous. At this stage nobody knows and it will basically come down to luck.
There are four other (7 known in total, leaving aside SARS1 and MERS for now) coronavirus that transmit in humans, these are:
HCoV-NL63
HCoV-229E
HCoV-OC43
HKU1
SARS-CoV-2 will go the same way as the above. Its what they do. The above 4 will all have variants being produced all the time, but luckily our immune system is largely able to recognise, adapt to any variations and deal with them.
Its probably worth bearing in mind that evolutionary pressure is on the virus to move up out of our lungs and reside more in our throat/nose - Omicron case in point - several reasons. Two of which are:
(i) a cough or sneeze will see more particles spread better if its only travelling from the back of our throat rather than from deep in the lungs - which would tend to line our airways with most of the viral particles.
(ii) someone who is not badly affected is in a better position to socialise and encounter other people to pass the thing onto.
