1. How did Academician Zhong Nanshan answer this question? Since the outbreak of COVID-19 virus, many mutations have taken place in COVID-19, from α to β, from γ to δ, and then to Omicron. After mutation, the virus has an increasing trend in infectivity and immune escape ability, which also directly affects the vaccination effect of COVID-19 vaccine.
How did Academician Zhong Nanshan reply to this struggle later? As early as more than a year ago, Academician Zhong Nanshan predicted that there would be an ideal vaccine in three to five years.

2. The struggle between mankind and COVID-19 is a long process. 1. The widespread epidemic has provided a constantly changing environment for COVID-19.
Convenient traffic conditions and the negative epidemic prevention policies of countries led by the United States have enabled COVID-19 to spread rapidly and widely around the world, and also provided enough space and time for the mutation of COVID-19.
2. COVID-19 constantly challenges the existing COVID-19 vaccine through constant mutation.
As the most powerful enemy that mankind has encountered in the past century, COVID-19 is adapting itself to mankind through constant variation. As far as Omicron strain is concerned, although its toxicity is lower than that of Delta strain, it has replaced the latter and become the main epidemic strain in the world in the past because of its advantages of fast spread and strong escape ability, and this variation trend has never stopped.
3. A more targeted COVID-19 vaccine is also being developed.
COVID-19 vaccine is an effective weapon against COVID-19 now and in the future. The virus has escaped, and humans are also developing a more targeted COVID-19 vaccine. For example, the Omicron COVID-19 vaccine developed by Sinopharm Group has entered the clinical trial stage.
Man is sure to win the fight against this epidemic.
Although there will be new variations in COVID-19, it is only a matter of time before it is defeated since human beings have enough methods to defeat it. Therefore, we should not be too pessimistic about this. Looking back on the development history of human society, the historical process itself is the process of human struggle with various difficulties. Since we have encountered such difficulties, we should face them bravely and overcome them as soon as possible.
The fight against the epidemic is tortuous and the future is bright. The Tao is one foot high, and the devil is ten feet high. Regarding the victory in the fight against the epidemic in the future, Academician Zhong Nanshan said: We will gradually open up in the process of dynamic clearance. Dr. Zhang Wenhong said: The fight against epidemic diseases in the future is a process in which we constantly strive to return to normal life. In these respects, the world in ten years' time will definitely be the world where human beings completely defeat COVID-19.
