Omicron is very different. It is more vaccine resistant (I have seen 57% effective after boosting) and more contagious, but especially among the vaccinated, exhibits mild or no symptoms. That is a recipe for an incredibly rapid spread of the virus. It also gives the vaccine defiant a talking point. Not one based on logic, science, or math, but a talking point nonetheless. 'Why so many cases?'. They make the argument because they are simpletons and have no desire to educate themselves. I guess it feels good to them to be stupid. It won't feel that great when they make a trip to the ICU.
The answer? Get vaccinated. Wear a mask. Sadly, because the unvaccinated are so selfish, it also means we can't have family get togethers. I learned that one the hard way. It was a hard pass for me on her families Christmas celebration. The asswipe that gave it to me last time will be there. I have many reasons not to want to see him. I've visiting Minnesota, but my activities are probably going to be limited to hanging out with friends and family that I am 100% sure are vaxxed (because each one can string together a cogent thought on Covid).
