The reason that variants of coronavirus aren’t as severe as variants in something like influenza is down to the make up of the viruses.
Influenza viruses infect human cells in an absolute multitude of ways. Coronaviruses infect human cells by latching via spike proteins. Every single vaccine humanity has developed to fight this coronavirus has been specifically designed to nullify the spike protein. It can mutate as much as it damn well pleases, so long as we’re designing vaccines that interrupt it’s one and only way of infiltrating our cells then we have it beat.
The kicker is, if it mutates that spike protein enough eventually it will render it utterly ineffective at invading our cells. That’s the thing you really won’t hear from our lovey media, this virus can actually mutate itself out of existence, and it’s actually more likely that a coronavirus will do that as it really only has one means of infiltrating our cells.
Honestly, we’ve got this. It’ll take a few months, but the high efficacy of our early vaccines already shows that this is an enemy that can and will be beaten.
It's the usual media pattern. People get bored so they move onto something else.
It's how they earn their money.

I'm wondering what the hacks will focus on if Prince Philip dies shortly?
Every now and then they raise the coded project for his funeral in an attempt to grab some clicks.
Doubt many will be pleased how Charles is getting access inside a hospital at a time others can't see their dying loved ones because hospitals are still refusing them entry.
The Oprah interview might be timed conveniently

Yes, probably in about 6 months time they'll be focusing on the next big 'threat' or moral panic, or regurgitating past or existing panics such as terror threats, knife/gun crime, racial tensions, hard-right antics, teenage yob culture/ASB, binge drinking, drugs, economic crises, austerity, immigrants, troubles in the Middle East, North Korea, Russia, you name it.
I did briefly read on the BBC website this morning that confirmed cases of both the SA and Brazilian variants are falling, though they didn't say whether it was in the UK, the actual countries of origin, or worldwide.
