Led by Millennials and Gen Z, generations with a predisposition to be fatalistic, Omicron parties are sweeping across the globe. And a new favorite expression has popped up among them, “We are the cure.”
Losing faith in the ineffective vaccines and harsh government countermeasures, have pushed a sense of grim determination to bring the pandemic to an end now. Being younger and healthier they are now idealistically embracing that the responsibility to achieve herd immunity falls on their shoulders and can only be done by actually catching the virus.
Omicron is being seen as the right variant at the right time to achieve the goal.
***Sorry for engaging in a little fiction. Talking to people who are turning against the covid narrative, people I though would never wake up, find myself believing this will happen if Biden announces new restrictions today.
My sister was asked to host such an event when she was sick last week. People want to catch it so they can get the "recovered" certificate (can be used instead of vax in my country).
We are the cure! Awesome!
