Some variants like the Andes strain are developing the ability to be human-transmissible. It has been recorded jumping from one human host to the next in prior outbreaks. Once it evolves to be trivially-transmissible, all bets are off.
Movie trailer voice: Coming this Sumner the bigly huge cross-over you’ve all been waiting for. Henta19 it spreads like covid and kills like henta. Evolving now as we decide to do nothing for global stability. Ivermectin has met its match, baby!
We won’t. This virus is only transmitted in close contact. None of the the science-based community I follow are worried, so I’m not worried.

My comment addressed the Andes strain. Although it is human transmissable, it requires close contact. That’s why it’s currently not much of a concern.
Also, at the societal level, the high lethality of the virus makes it far less likely to be able to spread broadly.
