In the continuously evolving landscape of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, predicting its future is more difficult than ever, as it requires a complicated balance between scientific analysis, public health interventions and societal adaptation. As we move through different phases of vaccination, new virus variants and changing public attitudes, the trajectory of the pandemic will continue to be influenced by a variety of factors. In this unpredictable scenario, scientific research, which relies heavily on laboratory data, will continue to be critical for a number of reasons such as filling knowledge gaps, monitoring and surveilling the intricate interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and its human host in the short and long term, and – last but not least – preparing for future pandemics.

Abstract
In the continuously evolving landscape of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, predicting its future is more difficult than ever, as it requires a complicated balance between scientific analysis, public health interventions and societal adaptation. As we move through different phases of vaccination, new virus variants and changing public attitudes, the trajectory of the pandemic will continue to be influenced by a variety of factors. In this unpredictable scenario, scientific research, which relies heavily on laboratory data, will continue to be critical for a number of reasons such as filling knowledge gaps, monitoring and surveilling the intricate interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and its human host in the short and long term, and – last but not least – preparing for future pandemics.
