Re <<Scientists warn that Omicron’s whirlwind advance practically ensures it won’t be the last version of the coronavirus to worry the world.>>

The article you cited might well be correct

But for now I am hopeful. I have been hopeful since 2020 get-go.

The evolution of viruses follow Darwin's theories and Covid-19 has been no exception thus far. The species/subspecies/strain that is most successful at propagation wins. For a virus, that means that other traits (such as deadliness) will be lost over time while traits like infectious will increase over time. For a more infectious AND more dangerous strain to emerge would be possible, but improbable. If a large increase in deadliness happened or a trend of increasing deadliness emerged, I would highly suspect that man once again tinkered with nature.


"Covid Virus getting stronger not weaker!"
The statement is not incorrect, but strong in nature means simply success at propagation...nothing more, nothing less.
