I don't think Covid is going to just fade away. Look at what is happening in Singapore, with over 80% fully vaccinated, they are having another outbreak. The US CDC has just approved a Pfizer booster for anyone over 60, in an attempt to regain antibodies that drop off six months after your second jab.
Living with Covid is going to mean a background of cases continuing. Even if we were 100% vaccinated, there will still be deaths. The various vaccines do not kill it, but reduce the severity of it if you do get it. You will still need to take precautions. This is the new normal. WA, SA, etc have been very lucky, but their population density works in their favour. Once borders open, so does Covid.
