Omicron: Haven’t We Been Here Before?

 "Honestly, no one knows for sure how or when this all ends."

From The American Spectator   "The emergence of the Omicron variant has breathed new life into the covid panic machine, and just in time for the birth of Christ! Doesn’t it feel like we have been here before? I don’t know about you, but I am having serious déjà vu. We’re entering an all too familiar pattern: a new covid mutation emerges, the left-leaning media panics prematurely, their government puppets threaten citizens with a new round of mandates, and none of it makes much of a difference in the natural cycle of something as infectious as a coronavirus. The prompt from the leftist elites is becoming as predictable as the sunrise. The difference is that now, for better or worse, most people just seem completely over it.

"Being completely over it isn’t necessarily a good thing. Don’t get me wrong, I have argued since the early days of the pandemic that the response of local and federal officials has often been draconian, anti-science, and actually abusive in many instances. I’ll stand by those viewpoints, because they keep being vindicated, both scientifically and morally. That said, we are still in a pandemic, and you should still take reasonable precautions to protect yourself from illness. In other words, you should behave as reasonable humans have since the beginning of our species’ existence. What you shouldn’t do is saturate your brain with leftist-induced panic porn. It doesn’t serve the public health well. It’s also not great for mental health either. Some of you need Lexapro much more than you need masks.

"The anxiety many are feeling (and some are profiting from) stems from the unknown. Almost two years into covid, and there is still so much that is not known. That’s frustrating." . . .
