A lot of people got really comfortable with things being "finally over" this summer. Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if it spiked again around Thanksgiving / the holidays as it has the past 2 years and once again catches lot of people off guard.
Perhaps they're just ahead of the curve back there. |

These boosters are for the original strain (the one from November 2019), as well as BA.5, the one responsible for the June/July spike here in the USA. So we should, theoretically at least, have broad exposure and protection from whatever hits us in December/January.
Its hard to keep up with mutations, but I'm willing to bet that those vaccinated vs two different strains will have a better immune system compared to those who only have immunity to one strain.
All three major strains for 2022 were Omicron, Omicron BA.4, and Omicron BA.5. So the virus seems to have "settled down" upon the Omicron branch of its evolution, suggesting that the next strain will be another variant of Omicron.
