Lots of scary headlines about Omicron and kids. This is your reminder that the media did the same thing with Delta, even though the data never bore out any real justification for that pic.twitter.com/FTTIRJNwPK

This also occurred with the now-forgotten Alpha variant. It was supposed to have kids dropping dead by the millions, the vaccines (still in development) would not work against it, etc. The “experts” and media, as Mason points out, also did the same with Delta and now it’s a repeat performance with Omicron.
Reality is that the vaccines will work against Omicron, it won’t cause kids to drop dead by the millions, and it won’t change much in itself (though the lockdown lifers and the plutes will use it as an excuse to take away more from you).
