if omicron is able to infect that much faster, yet cause far fewer hospitalizations and deaths, it could get us to the point where sars-cov2 becomes endemic
fauci came as close to admitting he may be wrong as he has in the past 23 months...

Interesting thought. But I am afraid as we continue with new variants coming and going that as the effectiveness of the virus wanes, they will release a new variant or a new virus to take its place. JMHO
SCIENCE THAT CAN’T BE QUESTIONED IS PROPAGANDA!!!

And instead of people getting accurate info, they will rely on the corrupt media/health organizations recommendations.  Which at least is a CYA get vaxxed and do X, Y, and Z.  Then enter fact checkers.

The opinions I recall was that that was the case for the mutations observed early on.  Virus able to spread easier/faster, but less severe.  So seems consistent with that.

they are reaching on the mutations from the alpha lineage to get omicron
the people i have been watching on youtube and twitter since last spring are saying that omicron and alpha had a common ancestor around january 2018...

Had dinner with friends over the weekend.  One is a PhD type in virology/immunology (but works on other stuffs).  Anyways, she mentioned that her colleagues had noted that, but that information was "peer reviewed" out. . .

What do your twitter gurus say why they skipped some Greek alphabet letters?   8)

You must not watch CNN, MSNBC, etc.  Leftist zombies attack people with as little as half a brain daily.

the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

When the stock market crashes and everyone is forced to admit this is the Great Depression 2.0 then nobody will care about the Wu Flu any more

“If you’re feeling sick, stay home,” said Dr. Thomas Lee, University of Hawaii public health professor. “We really don’t want to spread any type of virus, whether it be the flu, influenza or COVID.”

“We may see more transmission, even among vaccinated people, and re-infection may be more common with this variant,” Dr. Kemble continued.

She said vaccinated people have confidence in the vaccines and may be doing more at-risk behaviors, which could lead to exposure. The DOH encourages all residents, including the vaccinated, to get tested before events like family gatherings.

Yeah, I’m not doing any of that. Sounds like a good way to get screwed out of two weeks of pay for no benefit. Everyone is going to catch it anyway.

That's where I'm at. I might miss two weeks of surfing because of a false positive. Plus a lot of the testing companies are selling DNA profiles to China.
