From February 1 to 14, 2022, the United States recorded an average of 140,000 cases of Covid-19 per day, which is 67% less than in January. With the exception of a few centers around the world, such as Hong Kong, the trend is also downward in Europe but also in Brazil, India and Indonesia. The numbers of hospitalizations and deaths are also falling. This made Stéphane Bancel, the boss of the Moderna laboratory, which puts one of the two messenger RNA technology vaccines on the market, say that the pandemic is coming to an end. “There is an 80% chance that the coronavirus and its future variants will be less and less virulent,” he told the American television channel CNBC on Wednesday.
