"Never" what? You're aware that the world has had past pandemics, including one that killed 50 million people, and yet society returned to normal?

We also have influenza as an example of a possibility of "never."

Right, the flu will "never" be gone, but human society has been able to go about its business. That's why I wanted to know what the parent commenter means by "never". It seems like they were implying that society would be in a state of emergency forever because of coronavirus.
