I think this winter will be shitshow (technical term here lol). The timing to the fading efficacy and the northern flu season is going to be a perfect storm. The question is, does the vaccine make things worse? Well, the real question is, does the US collect the right data en masse to ensure that analysis can happen? And is it available?

I’m not sure about things like ADE, vaccine derived mutations, etc. but people will change their perceptions if the storm hits the way I think it does. In the end, we are shaped by our experiences around us, regardless of facts presented at times. If this happens, the covid vaccine will become a punch line of a bad joke.
Yes, we will have a big winter surge in most parts of the US. The SE had a worse summer surge than winter last year, and I would expect the same thing this year. But the NE, CA, etc with small summer surges will have a bad winter per seasonality from last year.
