It is helpful to see where we are at.
We have gone from 1 out of 11 people being infected to roughly 1 out of 15. Still, that seems high to me. The number of new cases is surprisingly low. The number of deaths is approaching a million, but the daily deaths have dropped quite a bit.
I think that we got lucky with the Omicron variant. I've been saying that it is like a different disease because it has slightly different symptoms. Reportedly it is ten times more infectious but ten times less deadly. It is like comparing cowpox to smallpox, where cowpox acts as a natural vaccine to smallpox.
This video is predicting a surge of the BA 2 variant...
