CDC is starting to tiptoe quietly away from “herd immunity via vaccination.”

China still thinks it can be done with better jabs – found this article:

Zero chance for China’s zero-Covid aim now virus has adapted, Sars expert says

• ‘No chance if we set a goal to eliminate all Covid-19 cases’, because virus has foothold and ‘will stay with us for the long term’, Guan Yi says
• Country should find out population’s antibody level after vaccination and how long it lasts, not obsess about testing to identify cases, he argues“
• “If a vaccine is not effective, we should remove it [from the vaccination programme]. If we don’t have sufficient understanding … we don’t have the [chance] to make improvements, especially when vested interests are involved,” he said, in a veiled reference to pharmaceutical firms.””
• “Guan said it was difficult for scientists from different countries to cooperate to build a global surveillance network similar to the one for flu, because of tension between nations and politicising of research.”

It’s ironic that it is highly likely that the jabs are responsible for the rapid mutation in the S1 spike.
