Fair enough, but what good will be achieved by boosting now, if in a month, scientists say that the current vaccine boosters only provide something like 20% protection against the new strain, that by then, will be dominant and spreading like wildfire?
To be honest, it's not so much December that I'm worried about. It's January. With Thanksgiving, Christmas & New Year's, this strain, which is 100% guaranteed already spreading, is going to soon be OUT OF CONTROL.
By the time America, and in fact other countries, wake up to a reality of perhaps the most contagious strain to come along, we'll be in January, and probably back to 200,000 New Cases & 2,000 Deaths each day.
I feel fairly certain we'll have a better idea in the next 1-2 weeks, how things are going to go down. But by then, it will be too late. The way people are acting now, as if the pandemic is far behind us, it's already too late. If Omicron is a super charged version of Delta, we're going to be facing some really extreme levels of disruption and death, for the next 4-5 months at a minimum.
