The virus may never go away but all other did not as well. You can only stop their further spread and infection by vaccination (some people will still be infected, but the number will be very small. Not a "pandemic" by any measure).
What do you propose?

I'm basing it off of info from someone who was in the White House Medical Office who had actually traveled overseas with the shipments. Not every country got shipments. This person had been involved in delivering vaccines to the states before they started overseas. Any screw up in getting vaccines to people is entirely on the states - whose governors and health depts were not all at the same level of readiness to receive them.
