As to the people with cancer, while I sympathize, having the tail wag the dog (in this case a tail analogous to a lightning needle atop a skyscraper) has never been wise policy by which to regulate 300 million people.
As to 5 year olds, they're already getting it like crazy. Do you think with all the adults acquiring it and not even knowing it, the kids aren't getting it?
At a certain point, vigilance needs to cede to pragmatism. Are we there yet? Maybe. Maybe not. But when people are doing in night clubs what Hank was describing, it seems impossible for Omicron not to have infected almost everyone. Which is a good thing. A weak strain that boosts immunity hastens the endemic stage.
