I see an email announcing a post from you. I am at my desk. I close my email - bring out my coffee, my portable device and lay back on the couch to read

Your posts are like fine wine. They need to be enjoyed in the right context.

Thank you!

I'm sure you are correct about the progression of the disease. However, based on interactions with family and friends I think your statement "everyone will have personal experience with Corona infection, whether or not they are vaccinated. This will destroy popular faith measures, it will erode their confidence in the vaccines, and it will do away with their fear of the virus." is too optimistic. Most people I know who are vaccinated and then got infected (I know many people like that) firmly believe that the vaccine is what allowed them to weather the infection. They are convinced that if they hadn't been vaccinated they would have been hospitalized and likely died. I don't know what, if anything, will convince them that they've been fooled.
