Why are we doing so poorly with the coronavirus?
The Spanish flu was over and done with in 2 years. We are in covid two and a half! And they had no vaccine!

My understanding is all of these flues are still around, but most people have built up immunity...seems that is what will happen with coronavirus...I also understand having so many unvaccinated people keeps it spreading more.

Alas, antibodies only last up to six months.@nudistsueaz

@Wiseacre People that are still alive and survived the Spanish Flu were tested for those anti bodies two years ago. Guess what, they still had the antibodies for the Spanish flu in their systems. So the six month thing isn't the fact. We are both carrying the antibodies for Corona from two years ago. According to the Mayo Clinic.
