question if any of you guys know, how is the new vaccines tailored against these new variants coming along? Its been 6 months since omicron and a year or so since delta, haven't heard much on the MSM about the vaccines for these variants. They fast tracked the original vaccines, wonder if the new ones would be released faster....

COVID-19 severity was associated with a greater risk of experiencing a long-term complication days 31-120 post-infection. Most incident events occurred days 31-60 post-infection and diminished after day 91, except heart failure for severe patients and death for moderate patients, which peaked days 91-120.
Further reading into the manuscript
The incident rates for complications by VASIC (mild, moderate and severe, respectively) from day 31-120 were: stroke (0.2%, 0.7%, and 1.1%); MI (0.2%, 0.7%, 1.0%); PE/DVT (0.2%,0.6%,1.5%); HF (0.2%, 1.1%, 2.1%); death (0.6%, 5.2%,9.4%). Severe patients had the highest rates of incident events, followed by moderate then mild. While the risks of incident events decrease for moderate and severe patients beyond day 30, risks for those in the mild category increase.
Among VASIC-mild patients, incidence of heart failure and stroke was significantly greater at 31-60 days compared to the first 30 days (p-values = 0.01 and 0.03, respectively). For most events and severity levels, incidence peaked in the first month post-infection (days 31-60) and then decreased over the course of follow-up.
So incidence of deaths even from mild infection after 31-120 post-infection is around 0.6%, however the median age of the infected sample group is 60, so this is not act as a good representation of the risk younger infected patient faces. If Covid contributes to increasing death risk, it could explain why excess mortality is high even when Covid deaths is low.

Edt: Also
The importance of clinical monitoring for COVID-19 patients well beyond their initial infection stage is highlighted, as the risks of poor cardiovascular events and death remain elevated after 30 days and increase beyond day 30 for mild patients.
So there should be some build up of diagnosis facilities to monitor and take care of those that got infected with mild symptoms.

Our current data is showing that many people are testing positive for 10 days or more rather than the 6 or 7 days we saw by frequent testing at the beginning of the Omicron wave, which means the virus has more opportunity to spread more widely and this may be BA-2 and XE’s transmissibility advantage.
So will It just keep evolving to stay in the body for far longer then? Will the final variant be it just integrating itself into the body like HIV, and stay there until the host dies? This disease is truly cursed.

65 mate and if it happens, I can't help it. This is the cycle of life.
That's you dude but not everyone will able take it so easily, I remember in the news that some guy threatened to shot and kill nurses and doctors in an hospital just because hospitals ICUs where full and there was no more room for his dying mother gasping for air. Some people are not so willing to let a family member just die and panic will set in. If China is willing to take that route, they will have to censor the crap out the outbreak and even give lengthy jail time to whistleblowers. But probably that will not be necessary as the majority older people get vaccinated and boosted in the coming months, they will enjoy stronger immunity than even younger people who vaccinated early.

Maybe, but imo I don't think this will happen

No

No

This disease is truly cursed.
Yes because it came out of nowhere and will stay with humanity until the end of time like the flu

Covid isn't going anywhere. Just accept that it will be another virus we will have to live with
