The common cold is, well, common. According the American Lung Association, adults in the US have two to four cold per year, children, six to eight.
There are several hundred distinct viruses that can cause a cold, including Rhinoviruses, Adenoviruses, Respiratory Cyncytial viruses, parainfluenza viruses, plus Coronaviruses, the latter responsible for perhaps a quarter of all colds.
Sars-CoV-2, or Covid-19, is a novel Corona virus that is evolving rapidly into increasingly mild forms, which is to say forms better adapted to its human host and thus less likely to kill. In time, quite soon therefore, we can expect Covid-19 to be recognized as simply another common cold virus, to which almost everyone will have some natural immunity due to frequent exposure.
At that point, vaccination will be entirely pointless, since natural immunity, boosted by frequent reinfection, will provide superior immunity to that induced by the so-called Covid vaccines -- without the risk of vaccine-induced heart damage or death.
Natural immunity is superior to that induced by the mRNA and related new-technology vaccines because it primes the immune system for a rapid response to future infection. This it does by storing fragments of the viral genome in memory T and B cells, which enables early recognition and response to subsequent exposure to the virus. Such virus-induced immune system adaptation is long-lived and probably life-long.
In contrast, the nucleic acid-based vaccines merely induce antibodies to the Corona virus spike protein. These antibodies are short-lived. Moreover, they are specific to a particular form of the spike protein. If the virus undergoes substantial mutation in the spike protein, as has occurred in the Omicron variant, the vaccine-induced antibodies lose effectiveness. Moreover, the antibodies are themselves short-lived: hence the loss of vaccine effectiveness over just a few months.
Covid will keep on killing frail elderly people and a small number of particularly susceptible younger people, just as, in smaller numbers, the common cold does now. In the short-term, the addition of SARS-CoV-2 to the common cold menagerie, will raise common cold mortality. Within a few years, however, it will have further evolved and will likely be no more deadly than the Corona viruses that already account for a large proportion of the most severe colds.
