We need vaccines for sure to stop the covid 19 completely but now people knows that this is not going to affect them much if they are a healthy and its more like a common flu now.People are still getting infected and that is why governments are urging to find their vaccines and looking to save their economy.
That is not what I am saying.
There are a lot of countries that ended the contamination of the virus without the vaccine, one of the most popular country is New Zealand. They stopped it without vaccines, and the last week as far as I know one country even celebrated its 100th day without Covid-19 cases, and yeah, without the help of the vaccine.
But they were able to do that because their population is way too small compared to other countries and not every country is hit by the corona virus to be the same extent so comparing a country to another is not viable option because every country have different trade partners across the borders and how brutally a country is hit by the virus depends on various aspects.
Economy will restart and there are most of the big companies that are still operating at maybe a slower but good pace so there is nothing too much to worry about. The most problematic the virus has been is to the small businesses and the local industries so they just need to hold during this time and try to avoid shutting down their industries while the government must offer some relief to them via taxes or something else.
