    So far the second omicron wave in England is killing more people than the first, so we can probably expect round two in the US to be worse. These evil motherfuckers actually thought getting everyone infected would make the disease "mild".

      I don't get it honestly. How does a disease which is worse for people with poor lung health, which causes chronic lung damage in most of the infected, and which you can get repeatedly, sound like one where you can do a nationwide chicken pox party to solve?

        It doesn't matter if it makes sense, it only matters if it can be used to restore rent-seeking business interests, i.e. get back to work and buy shit.

        I'm sure they consulted a team of experts and then went with the advice of some asshole doctor who told them we can solve it by doing nothing. Science.

      This is exactly what would happen if evolution stopped being a thing. We are lucky that a more deadly version hasn't evolved yet, Delta was IIRC the most deadly yet.
