The coronavirus or Covid-19 may be mutating into something like the common cold

My son has a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from one of the California State Universities in Southern California and was telling me that this is what likely will become of the coronavirus because it is just one step away from becoming something like the common cold and this was several months ago now. So, if you read the last article it sounds like it has made the jump (some strains) into being almost exactly like "The coronavirus type of common cold".

This is very dangerous simply because we don't have a vaccine for the common cold because it keeps mutating too fast to do that. We ONLY have a vaccine for the Flu every year that is usually only 40% to 60% effective depending upon the year and how effective it might be as it mutates too.

But, WE DON'T ever have a vaccine for the common cold and this is why a coronavirus that is like a common cold would just keep on killing people for the next several hundred years with no effective vaccines ever.

Even now, it is said that one can only be immune from the Covid-19 Strain for a maximum of 3 months time.

And if this is true does that mean that we have to get a Covid-19 shot every two months just to be safe even now? (after an effective vaccine is developed of course) because the Russian one was found to be ineffective.
