@mrtt_awakeandreadytofight There is concern because:
1. This is the Delta variant and it is more contagious and the effects of it are more severe compared to the original strain, hence the reason why people who are not elderly are now increasingly ending up in ICU. Just look at Asia, many countries were able to control the virus last year but now all of a sudden these countries are having record breaking numbers of daily cases and deaths continue to rise. In Thailand, for example, they were once having 0 cases per day but now they're having 20,000 cases a day due to the Delta variant. Japan is now experiencing 25,000 cases a day. China has once again resorted to locking infected people up in their homes as cases of the Delta variant spread rapidly across the country.
2. More and more studies are revealing the long term effects of COVID-19. Data has shown, for example, a decrease in IQ for those who contracted COVID-19 compared to those who didn't. In the US, a case of a 15 year old boy revealed that he was a high achieving student pre-COVID-19 but after contracting a mild version of the virus, 6 months later he began to feel lethargic and was unable to complete his maths homework (something that he has studied for) and ultimately failed to complete his maths test after experiencing a meltdown in which he feared that he "may never be a good student again".
