When (I believe it was Grassley) told us "letting op information out derails the op", I took it to mean us bragging about what is coming can cause derailment.

But then I saw this: https://youtu.be/v6HW6GAge2I

And I realized it can be mirrored to our favor. They combined omicrons transmissibility with OG strain strength, and now everyone knows it.

If a new strain that is both highly infectious and has the strength of OG covid comes out, everyone will know the US government did it.

Mass awareness of operations can derail the operation, indeed.
