Even if immunity never develops, and multiple reinfections are possible until eventual death, there would surely still be many humans left after it burns itself out.
How does it burn itself out though if immunity doesn't develop?

Considering how many of us there are and how spread out we are, there is essentially zero chance of it reaching everyone. It would obviously be devastating and catastrophic, but I can't imagine a virus causing extinction.
