An interesting opinion, I think the pandemic is now fading into the background, now is the time of the struggle of different countries and the stratification of the world in general. Undoubtedly, a huge amount of money is spent during all pandemics, this is just an excuse.
For the sake of making new budgets to tackle new pandemics there could be newer research from scientist and the result might be worst than Covid. Secondly man is constantly evolving and research constitute greater percentage of how humans prepare for the future so the world facing new pandemic is imminent except the world of science and research dies or goes into extinction but anything outside that the possibility of creating pandemics worst than we have ever experienced is still high.
