Will it me the same next year

"Yes it will this will not change on Jan first or May 1st or any day soon. "
Things should slowly get better once the more socially active people start being vaccinated. I honestly expect that by summer time things should be fairly close to normal.

Vaccinations en masse, winter restrictions, followed by better weather and more time outdoors from later spring, should help to ease things.
The NHS worst period is typically winter, so when that ends, we also have that burden removed.
It's not the end but the prospect of elderly people being hit so hard from the summer, is minimised. The virus is still going to be around. If we ever get test and trace to operate properly, it will get the targetting of restrictions on to those who need it and to reduce newer infections in the bud. |

Given restrictions surely the annual flu drain in nhs should be considerably reduced this year - that’s bound to help cope |

"100% YES
Is that a yes to the same next year..."
I'm pretty sure we will see continued restrictions for the whole of next year.
A precedent has been set . The vaccine wont end covid anyway. It will continually change like the flu virus. Its a massive task to vaccinate enough people to make much difference in the short-term. |

Yes vaccination could take 2 to 14 years |

"I'm hoping we start to transition to normality for Easter, assuming the vaccine can protect against this new strain."
So when are you going to be offered it.
There is 60 million to vaccinate and a booster so.
5years x 52weeks x 500,000 injection yes 100,000 a day and it would still be 5 long years.. |

Can’t see a way out of this shower of shite, unless there is a global shift in line with Flu.
Global governments have nailed their flag to locking us all down for the sake of the few, something that Prof Neil Fergusson (Imperial college - who broke the first lockdown rules for some pussy) the guy who has advised most of the world on Covid, the guy who has openly said this strategy will not work in the long term.
Protecting “the few” includes my mum and dad, and my in-laws, so please don’t give me any moral shit for saying that.
Right now the highest morbidity and mortality is in the over 80’s, followed some way behind by the over 70’s (inc my folks) then the over 60’s. Those below 60 who are healthy are at minimal risk from this disease.
We seem to have lost track of the fact that Flu (another nasty respiratory virus with many variants) is a global killer too, with hundreds of thousands, young and old, being killed each year.
My hope, for my sanity and the sanity of my friends and family, is that they get the vaccine out to the vulnerable over the next few months, then treat it like Flu and let nature take its course.
I can’t help but think that the people in power are now looking beyond Covid now. They have a once in a century opportunity, with a scared and compliant general public who seem to be hanging on their every word. I really cannot see things returning to what was “normal” after this.

Playing politicians here...
What would you do if you were in their shoes - given this opportunity to implement change for “the greater good”
I can think of plenty, and apparently I’m a fuckwit, so god only knows what the higher powers are thinking |

Absolutely spot on.
This is not about combating a virus, it is about control of the population.

60 million people vaccinated at a rate of 500,000 a week (as above) equals 102 weeks (2 years)
That’s without taking into account extra products becoming available for more sources and the booster running in parallel

But they all need a booster so in 2 years it would be 1million a week 200,000 a day |

The predictions for flu this year are that it's likely to have a reduced impact, compared to the average annual total. January to summer 2000 flu deaths were 294, I believe but obviously people needing hospital treatment would have been higher than that. The flu rates in the Southern Hemisphere during the UK summer, were low this year, though countries such as Australia have had tight restrictions, due to covid-19 that should have helped to suppress flu infections too.
Obviously the predicted and actual prevalent flu strains may differ but vaccine uptake has been high this year so, with luck, the NHS may not be hit as hard as recent years. Certainly deaths from flu below 500 is nothing, in comparison to the many tens of thousands of lives lost due to covid-19. Newer treatments used for the latter should help to minimise the strain on the NHS, as illness severity and hospital treatment durations can be reduced. |

Much of the list of what you sound alarm over, the constant tracking etc, is independent of this virus and our response to it. Phones, the Internet and technology support those abilities today, if the state is permitted to do that.
We should be cautious when our freedoms are curtailed and especially so if we live under an autocratic style of leadership.
That the virus will persist for some time does not mean that restrictions on liberty will need to. Currently Parliament is responsible for renewal or alterations to the laws that are enforced for specific finite periods of time. |

No they shouldnt ,but they will , governments like to take freedom away but does not like to give it back ,have you not noticed there is allways an excuse . Its only 3 weeks ,its to flatten the curve ,its to save the nhs ,now its a new strain (that the WHO have said its no more deadly than the first ). The list goes on and on |

History around the world does show that many lost freedoms are slower to be returned.
In this instance, in the UK, which specific legislative changes involving freedom, are you seeing as permanent and not subject to reversibility, from the passage of time etc?
Whilst the virus is going to be in existence in many countries longer than in others, travellers will be able to shift it around.
Whilst the UK hasn't been amongst the countries who've managed this well, our most vulnerable citizens should be better protected within 2021, which will be great progress. |

Well of course the vaccinated must always wear a mask and social distance forever, the vaccine doesn't stop a person catching or passing on coroni.
This is the new normal |
