I assume you are talking about the US there, since here in Germany we are racing to booster as many folks as possible right now as the nth wave is tsking over the country again. Hard restrictions for unvaccinated people, as makes sense. But the thing that counts is: our health care system is on the brink of collapse.

There's also an uptick in healthcare professionals leaving the field and major mental health issues even leading up to higher suicide rates.
