\\u201c[COVID-19] is not going to go away. \\u2026 It\\u2019ll probably be here for decades. But, our ability to deal with it is what certainly has changed over the last year and a half with all of the advances in vaccines and treatments \\u2026 testing, and health measures.\\u201d \\u2014 Dr. Adrian Hyzler
\\xa0
\\u201cThere are a lot of advancements now in mask design and manufacturing. I think we\\u2019re going to see a whole slew of new style masks, cheaper masks, and masks that are more comfortable to wear.\\u201d \\u2014 Dr. Adrian Hyzler

\\u201cIn over-50-year-olds I can certainly see the benefit [of having a fourth vaccine].\\u201d \\u2014 Dr. Adrian Hyzler
\\xa0
\\u201cI think, as always with travel, it\\u2019s really important that you make sure that you\\u2019re fully vaccinated \\u2026 and have a look carefully at the websites to make sure that you\\u2019ve got your vaccines for that particular country.\\u201d \\u2014 Dr. Adrian Hyzler
