That's the thing about viruses -- they sometimes have very high mutagenic potential. That's to say that they have the possibility to mutate and change into new strains and variants very, very quickly. Especially so when it is infecting a lot of people, vaccinated or not, and adapting to it. Look at Plague Inc., a game based around viruses and mutagenic potential.
@SW-User Thank you. Well said. Another "simply put" way of describing it: Recall every year it is suggested we get a flu shot as the flu VIRUS is slightly different. Duh.. Or There are about 150 or so viruses that cause the common cold, hence why kids and younger adults get more colds vs older adults. So, will we need to get COVID boosters like the flu shot, tetanus, shingles, pneumonia, Hepatitis, etc .
