When Will The COVID-19 Virus End? by newdawn77(m): 10:05pm On Apr 02, 2020
It likely won't. Ever.

A vaccine will be produced at some point, but look how many people don't get a flu shot. COVID-19 will be the same. It's spread too far now to realistically expect a worldwide eradication.

A vaccination will never be 100% effective, and the virus will mutate enough to require yearly updates, similar to a flu shot.

It isn't all doom and gloom, though. A vaccine will prevent most cases, and treatments for people who do contract it will improve as the medical community gets more experience with it.

This year will most likely be the worst of it, and the panic will probably be at least as dangerous as the virus itself. People are already causing problems by stocking up on soap and things like that. Production of goods will be impacted by quarantine measures, leading to shortages. Basically, the dominoe effect on society will have an economic impact that will disrupt business as usual. Trying to carry on business as usual would facilitate the COVID-19 spread, so we're kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place.

The best advice I've heard is basically to prepare, not panic. If you want a stockpile of food, don't go clear out the canned goods section. Just buy a little extra for a few weeks to slowly build up your stockpile. Same with any other goods you think you might need, especially things like hand sanitizer that the medical community needs more that you do.
