@seachanger @schrotie If you want the really long version Gandhi has [an excellent book on the subject](bookshop.org/p/books/endemic-a). The argument is that even if a sterilizing vaccine for a particular variant is developed and it could be distributed to everyone on earth before the virus mutated, that continued mutation in animal reservoirs would mean that the virus would return.

@antares @seachanger Sterilizing vaccines make it look possibly feasible/worth it to control outbreaks, though.
