> So the fact that we as world do a really bad job at vaccinating in countries with lower income will ultimately assure that new strains show up that are even more resistant against the vaccine?
Exactly what would be the feasible logistical plan to put a shot in the arm of every single person on the entire planet at nearly the same time in order to (supposedly) forestall the evolution of new variants? Is there any historical precedent for this having been accomplished in the past with a virus as endemic as SARS-CoV-2? One which can also hide out and mutate in animal reservoirs?
Flu has about one base pair RNA mutation between each viral generation (cell to cell), coronavirus's with rna the length of the current one aren't possible without an error correction mechanism, and as a result of having that they have about only one base pair mutation between each host transmission (person to person).
I don't know the answer to your question, but it seems much harder with flu due to more rapid variation.
