A couple of other thoughts

1) we’re about to move to that time of year where we spend most of our time socialising indoors

2) a percentage of the populations immunity is already on the wane, whilst boosters are coming online we could potentially see spikes due to this too.

I do love how some people act so blasé in all of this, they must be expert virologists & immunologists
Unfortunately I knew a bloke that was blasé about it. He's now dead. True he did have an underlying lung condition and not in the best of health, but had been double jabbed.

This virus is still potentially fatal to a signicant number of people. Those that aren't vulnerable but don't take precautions because they only think about themselves need to reflect on their potential to be life threatening to others. Something as simple as a mask in enclosed spaces isn't a big ask.
