Ooh, another variant has come along! Clearly people aren't being frightened enough... but luckily a shiny new variant has arrived to concentrate their minds a bit. By all accounts, it's the "most significant variant to date"... well, it's the most significant since the last one and until the next one pops up, I suppose.
Do I sound a tad cynical?
Viruses mutate, that's what they do to survive and that's why they've been around for billions of years longer than human life. They generally become more transmissible but less dangerous... and that's exactly what this one is doing.
This is just another dose of Project Fear. People have been ground down for the better part of two years by Govt predictions of Armageddon - none of which have happened. Give it a rest now - sometimes you just need to know when to back off.
Incidentally, they'd better not even think about cancelling Christmas again. I mean it.
