I don't think we're in the same spot. Infection rates are going down since the peak last month. Perhaps some of it is increased compliance with masking, distancing and washing, plus increases in vaccine and tests.
Can Antibodies in the blood attack Covid virus in the throat? IDK, but if not mass testing still needed to prove a person is noninfectious. Proof of vaccination will not be enough to get someone on a plane. but antigen testing in the airport will.
Hypothetically, let's say half the population of the USA tests themselves twice a week. That's 350M tests a week or 1.4M /month, rounded. If Innova's production scales like they say to 50M/day or 1.5B/month, everyone can be tested that needs to be.
That's way more than needed to get achieve herd immunity equivalency.
So you brush your teeth, you do the test.
Easy-Peasy, that's the new normal.
