@erikanders3343 Really? Just like all the others? I'm pretty sure I've never had to take a booster 3-6 months after getting vaccinated with anything else. I'm pretty sure they've never told me I might have to take a booster every fiscal quarter (a coincidence, I'm sure) for the foreseeable future. I'm pretty sure none of the vaccines I've taken are under a 50+ year veil, wherein I'm not allowed to know too much about them. And before you falsely claim it's the same as a yearly flu shot, it's not. Every year, they modify the flu shot to work against the dominant variant. All previous flu shots continue to work against the variants for which they were created. This "vaccine" is made for the wild type COVID, and they just keep pumping people full of the same recipe, hoping it might work a bit. It was not as effective against Delta and it's nowhere near as effective against Omicron. However, they keep pushing you to just take more of it. Don't ask too many questions about it, though. You're not allowed to know until long after you're on social security.

Omicron is the dominant variant in new case infections, not hospitalizations. The death tolls are from the people who are losing the fight with other variants after a week or more. This was predictable, as we get spikes after every holiday. After another two to three weeks, we'll start seeing if there is a significantly different lethality for Omicron in the US vs other Countries. However, given the numbers from those other Countries, the future is looking pretty bright, so far. Omicron should infect enough people to push out the other variants, altogether. Given that it has shown to be so mild, that will give virtually everyone a fighting chance. If it's successful around the globe, all new variants should stem from Omicron, meaning that they'll be likely to be even more mild and even more contagious. What does that mean? That means, if all goes well, we'll have another cold to add to our cold and flu season, and life will move on.

@erikanders3343 If there's nothing unique about virus mutation in the US, then why is it that our variants are, as you imply, unexceptional. It would seem, by your own admission, that there are some fundamental differences in virus mutations in different Countries.
