Exactly this. We are lucky that Omicron variant hasn't been producing serious illnesses at the rate of other variants, but the more the virus rans rampant, the greater chance that another, possibly more deadly variant, will be spawned. Some people don't get this and think we shouldn't be taking it as serious as past variants.
