New Omicron variants are so infectious - Bloomberg/Fortune

Boots on the ground here. Our entire CPA office has it even though with 3rd and 4th booster. BUT they are not hospitalized. Friend just returned from CA. wedding which turns out to have been a "super" spreader event. All were vaxed and some even had had COVID once, received the special drugs during treatment and got it again. Why? In the 14th century half of all Londoners died and an estimated 30-60 million died in Europe, 75 to 200 million if you include Eurasia and North Africa. If you have ever read the collection of stories known as The Decameron, you know the rich and lucky sequestered themselves in the country behind high walls to survive. That works....but at least COVID is not the "Black Death."
