Ah, yes - the oft repeated "the next variant will be the deadly one", we need to do something unspecific to stop that.
We remember when you also said about BQ.1 and BQ.1.1 in October (they are covered by the latest WHO-reports).
And prior vaccinations and vaccinations still protect against the variants (not perfectly, but still sufficient and especially against serious infection and death), despite what you claimed in June.
And in February you thought that Denmark was having a large number of deaths due to opening up - they didn't.
The significant thing that has happened during this time is that more countries have opened up, including China and many more have been vaccinated. Some have died, but a lot lower numbers - 600k have officially been confirmed as dead, compared to 6M before that; and the estimated actual deaths increased by about 1.2M to 20.8M;
