That's not even remotely the worst-possible outcome... just the most likely one.

Worst possible is the rampant Omicron spread gives birth to a new - more deadly - variant mutation... the virulence of Omicron with a mutation that alters the spike protein to make our existing defenses ineffective... and we are back to March 2020, but with more dead. AND humans are tired and exhausted and not willing to do any preventative measures any more... defeated.

THAT's catastrophizing.
