My concern is that there is more than one strain of the virus out there, which means that a truly effective vaccine will need to fight more than one strain of Covid.

Yep so just like the yearly flu vaccine which is recommended for higher risk patients (and mandatory for my entire military career) is at best an educated guess as to which strain will be prevalent in the upcoming season. I highly doubt that a “cure all” vaccine is even possible. I think it’s largely window dressing, they have to be seen to be doing something
