This virus will certainly affect humans as much as any other virus, except that most of these effects will affect the elderly and children, or not at all.  For example, the harmful effects of Covid-19 will mostly affect the elderly and young children because the immune system is very weak in the elderly and young children.  This deadly disease can be cured with improved vaccine for COVID-19.  Vaccines are acceptable for children.  The vaccine for COVID-19 will be further developed in the future

It's true that almost all businesses have suffered losses due to Covid 19.
Of course with that kind of thing the government must really review the policy of raising taxes,
in the middle of 2020 the pandemic is predicted to end at the end of 2020 but in fact until now it is still a pandemic

In the US, they are planning to raise taxes (both for corporations and for individuals). I would say that this is a very short-sighted move, given the depressed economic conditions. IMO, this is not the ideal time to raise tax rates. The government should rather take loans, and repay them when the economy gets back on track. Some of the sectors, such as aviation, hospitality and restaurant business are close to bankruptcy. Healthcare sector is in bad shape due to the additional load from the pandemic. Only a very few such as eCommerce and TV channels are doing well.

The end of the pandemic is unpredictable because the number of people and handlers in each country is different. The larger the population, the more difficult it is to vaccinate. In Singapore, most people have been vaccinated and currently the country considers Covid to be the same as the flu in general. while in India they still consider this virus dangerous. This condition occurs because the population in the two countries is very different.

Such a strategy also occurs in my country, where the government provides subsidies to the community. while the tax at the beginning of covid did not seem to be charged, but over time, the government seemed to be looking for a source of funding from taxes where entrepreneurs reviewed their taxation, until there were findings and billed

There is not even a single sector in the economy, which is not impacted by the downturn due to COVID 19. So the government needs to be careful. They can't force the embattled businesses to pay ever increasing taxes. Already a large number of small and medium sizes are bankrupt. In my area, almost 75% of the restaurants have shut down their operations. Same is the case with hotels and lodges. Other businesses are also not doing good. Initially, it was expected that the pandemic would be contained in a couple of months at the most. But now it has already been two years.

Yes, unfortunately, the pandemic has stretched for too long a period of time and even now it is difficult to predict the future situation, because the situation is developing in waves, presenting more and more new challenges. It is quite possible to understand government officials who, in the current difficult conditions, are trying to find more sources to replenish the budget, but it seems that it is still too early to tax the surviving enterprises too much, and therefore the printing press is still a popular and necessary tool for the state, despite all the costs that are inherent in this mechanism.

I don't think that the pandemic will get contained in the next 6-7 months. Even the vaccination programs are facing a lot of obstacles now. All the vaccines have lower efficacy for the newer strains and Pfizer and Moderna have announced that they will rollout a third booster dose that will offer protection form the Delta variant. And this is going to further slowdown the inoculation campaign. And there is no guarantee that additional booster shots won't be required in the future, if more lethal and contagious strains of the virus appears.

No strategy will be fully successful without a robust set of social policies designed to ensure individuals and small businesses are able to comply with restrictive rules.

Covid-19 has highlighted inequalities in access to health care and people's ability to be able to stay at home to continue the work they do. Poverty, gender, job skills and immigration status have become factors that determine who is more susceptible to infection in society.

But governments differ greatly in shaping the social policies they design to manage crises and promote economic recovery.

The governments around the world are facing a dilemma. On one hand, they have seen their revenues dipping, as a result of plummeting tax collections. And on the other hand, their expenses are increasing due to the need to buy vaccines and other supplies such as oxygen cylinders and oxygen concentrators. There are few options for them now. Either they need to increase the taxes, or they need to start printing more number of banknotes. Both the actions have negative consequences associated with them.
The government is not following the two moves you said, they are offering another option when I am quite confident that countries have reserve budgets, it caters for special cases and that money comes from our taxes, the government often divides our taxes into many different categories and when the situation is difficult, this part of the tax will become a source of subsidies for everyone. Besides, instead of printing money or raising taxes to cause social influence, the government always calls for contributions from strong businesses, in return, they will reduce some of the tax costs for these businesses during the recovery

I don't think that this option is much practical. Many of the businesses are struggling due to issues with supply and general economic slowdown. At this point, they won't be in a position to meet the demands from the government. I would say that given the circumstances, the businesses may be hoping for tax decreases, and not tax hikes. And the justification that they may be given tax breaks once the situation becomes normal is not viable. We don't know for how long it will remain like this. And even after that, it will be a gradual recovery.

^^^ I don't live in Europe, and therefore I don't know whether your claims are true or not. But governments in those countries which have approved Sputnik for emergency usage have released the data on its efficacy. Here is a study from the Arab country of Bahrain:

https://www.aninews.in/news/world/asia/sputnik-v-demonstrates-943-pc-efficacy-during-vaccination-campaign-in-bahrain20210610175038/

This particular study claims that Sputnik V has a real life efficiency of 94.3% (almost same as Pfizer and Moderna). The data comes from Bahrain's Ministry of Health. The neighboring country of UAE has released data which shows that Sputnik V is 97.8% efficient in preventing COVID 19. The link here:

https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/healthcare/biotech/healthcare/sputnik-v-records-97-8-efficacy-against-covid-19-in-uae-fully-effective-against-severe-cases/articleshow/83948075.cms?from=mdr

Well, let's talk like adults who do not want to prove their innocence or other people's mistakes, but reasonably assess the situation:
So, you gave the example of Bahrain. We put on 1 pan of the scale.
I'll add the following FACTS to the other side of the scale:
1. The vaccine really still cannot pass certification, only because the manufacturer does not want to go through a full-fledged protocol, to comply with it completely.
2. The manufacturer manipulates data
3. The manufacturer falsifies, deliberately, the data on this "vaccine"
4. Multiple facts of the difference between the drug declared for delivery and the actually delivered drug
5. Official data from Russia suggests that the start of vaccination coincided with a very high increase in mortality in the country.
6. Official data from Russia indicate that after the mass vaccination with Sputnik, the growth of diseases not only did not fall, but a new wave of growth began, and the Russian Federation is now in the 5 leaders in the spread of COVID (which clearly indicates a very low efficiency, if not 0 result)
7. The state machine of Russian propaganda, since last year, has been busy not so much with an attempt to improve the effectiveness of Sputnik, as with "omitting" and "spoiling" all the other vaccines.
8. At the same time, you often publish information about supposedly prohibitively low efficiency, for example, the same Sinovac. Although the analyst says that the vaccine works, although I do not agree at such a high level as, for example, Pfizer. But it works and is actually used by millions of people. By the way, in China, it is she who is the main vaccine, and the result is tangible.
9. The cited data on the efficiency of the satellite - exclusively from the Russian media, or "reprints". We are reading your article "The Russian Direct Investment Fund, on Tuesday announced that the effectiveness of its Sputnik V Covid-19 vaccine in the United Arab Emirates has been confirmed at 97.8 percent" !!! Once again - this is stated by the RUSSIAN DIRECT INVESTMENT FUND!
10. The story with the The Lancet magazine is another indicator that they just wanted to "shove" information about Sputnik, but here everything was done "stupidly and crookedly", about which there was already an investigation (I even recently dropped the link to this incident)
11. All statements by the Russian Federation about contract production and hundreds of millions of doses for the market are fake, or "advertising that has nothing to do with reality."
12. Bahrain. If you look for articles about Sputnik on the website of the Ministry of Health, then apart from a few general articles, you will not find anything. And of course - not a single article about its super efficiency. https://healthalert.gov.bh/en/category/search?keyword=Sputnik


These are facts that I remembered quickly, without being particularly puzzled. If you spend a little more time, there will be 5 times more reasoned facts, but not for the benefit of Sputnik Smiley

Basically, the vaccine is not a guarantee to be free from this virus.
~

Yes and no. If you are taking a vaccine that is having an efficacy of 95%, then there is still a 5% chance (compared to those who are unvaccinated) that you will get infected. But the most effective vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna, Sputnik, Janssen.etc) have almost 100% guarantee that even if you are infected, you will not require hospitalization. So it offers almost 100% protection from death. Now you can decide whether you want to take the 100% chance of getting infected, or 5% chance of getting a mild infection.

I DO NOT want to sound boring, but I ask you not to pass Sputnik off as a "reliable vaccine". The reason is simple - with this vaccine there are simply "fabulous" events, which are controlled by the producer country, but trying to present them as "competition". There can be no question of any kind of competition! From the very beginning, the manufacturer violates all protocols, manipulates data, and, worst of all, falsifies data. Moreover, the problem is already widespread, in which the drug declared for delivery does not correspond to the actually supplied "chemical mixture" of dubious origin. In this case, the manufacturer does not even try to provide explanations.
Therefore, it seems to me that it is not humane to support and call reliable a drug that can, and most likely will not bring healing, but only new problems.

Well, and "icing on the cake", so that I am not unfounded, just a few facts that anyone can check:
1. At the end of last year, the mass inoculation of people with Sputnik began in the Russian Federation. At the moment, according to official data, about 18% are vaccinated, completely (2 doses) - 12.5%
2. In the first quarter of 2021, an extremely low trend in the spread of COVID, as well as a low mortality rate, was officially declared. BUT, at the same time, for some reason, it was the first quarter that gave a 20-30% increase in mortality in the country, in comparison with the year-to-year!
3. Today, the Russian Federation, with its "mega-effective vaccine Sputnik", takes the first places (included in the 5 countries with the highest incidence rate) in terms of the growth of COVID disease!

Therefore, it is not humane to support such a proposal, since any person who takes this information for reality will risk his life with a high probability. When making statements, assess the risks of your words, and be responsible for them!
Hope for understanding!  Smiley

Covid-19 is a serious problem that whole world suffered and worried to their life and their families. Millions of people die and their love ones left was no action literally cause the Government will the one who will kept and crimate the body it was really sad of the mesyry we experienced because of this Covid-19
It is a serious world problem that every country who got some active cases suffered from it. Although there are still those countries that didn't suffer from it and they're covid free, we are jealous with their situation.

The world can turn back again soon but we don't know when that exactly is going to happen. The hope for the vaccines to come at every part of the world is what needed to happen to end this pandemic.
Even those who have been vaccinated twice are sometimes still exposed to Covid, and there are some who die, because the virus mutates. If it's like this, I think I actually agree with the plan in Singapore, that categorizes this virus like the common cold, without the media reporting this virus. and finally like herd immunity
Basically, the vaccine is not a guarantee to be free from this virus.
and as you said in some I'm sure there are also cases like that,
Anyway, I hope that covid 19 will soon disappear in the world even though it's quite impossible

A person can get all the available pills and vaccine against Tuberculosis. But if he will spend a lot of time close to a person with Tuberculosis in closed area (like prison for example), for 99.9% he will be infected with it and shorten his life, if he wont change anything.

The case with Tuberculosis vaccine is unique. The only available vaccine against TB (Bacillus Calmette–Guérin vaccine or BCG) is effective only against disseminated forms of tuberculosis in children. It has zero efficacy against pulmonary tuberculosis, which affects the adults. And this is the reason why TB continues to kill millions of individuals around the world every year. If some of the pharma companies could invent an effective vaccine against pulmonary tuberculosis, then all these lives could be saved. Therefore it will be wrong to compare the TB vaccine with those against COVID 19.

Right now, the only country that has remained free from COVID for the last few months is China.
Wrong, there are other countries that are actually covid free. They never got any single covid cases.

https://koryogroup.com/blog/are-there-countries-without-coronavirus

All the cases that were reported from that country during the last few months were "imported" (i.e migrated from other countries). Apart from China, there are a few remarkable exceptions, such as Taiwan and Vietnam. But even in these countries, there is a trend of increase in the number of new infections. Then there are countries such as New Zealand and New Caledonia, which have remained free from COVID, because they are isolated island nations.
New Zealand and Taiwan were the first countries that has been reported last year to actually won against the pandemic. But you're right that some migrants have been infected and those cases didn't came from the people who were already in those countries. They came from outside and just got in into their jurisdictions.
