This is a sensitive one that I've been claiming since November when South Africa responded to the UK blocking flights from there:
Omicron could be the best thing that happened, relative to the current situation ( delta at the time and multiple countries were having a lot of cases of delta).
Currently both of the "best possible scenarios" are happening but need further data.
- less severity and less hospital duration
- replaces delta
The big downside is the stress on first line workers ( eg. Doctors)
The entertainment industry will continue to wither and be replaced by the influence industry. Movies that once were about ticket sales became about ticket sales and selling toys. Then they became about selling toys and ticket sales and product placement. Then they became about product placement and ticket sales. Then they became about product placement, ticket sales, and social influence. Currently they are about social influence, product placement, subscription services and the toys have measured amounts of entertainment you lease in small increments.
