It isn't that simple. A host has ample opportunities to spread the virus before they have any clue they have the virus. The world's population is much larger than the number of covid deaths so suggesting this is nearly over is ignoring the reality of what is happening in the world.

What you are ignoring is that other strains exist at the same time. And because they do not kill the hosts, they are the ones that are more likely to spread. Because they are active for longer periods of time.
After a person is exposed to one strain, they gain immunity from the deadlier strain. Which as I've said before, is the basis for vaccines to start with.
