One more reason why there will probably be a third wave

I think the third wave will be muted by the vaccinations as well as warmer outdoor weather allowing more distancing, but yes we are awfully close to have such silly behavior.
People are tired, especially the young. At some point, people throw up their hands and say to hell with it...

The biggest concern is these variants are more dangerous to the young...

That may be turned around if it starts hitting younger folks.

The most prevalent thought is that with 70% plus of the old fully vaccinated this new wave won’t create a crushing hospitalization and death spiral. But still some will die and since it will be mostly younger people it will appear as if it is now killing young people. Watch the stories vs the data and see the gap.

Fair. Especially as it’s pretty clear the virus isn’t really dangerous for young folks (obv the danger of transmitting to others is there)

The big question remains whether the variants are more damaging to younger people.

True enough, but what we are seeing here is that more young people are showing up at the ERs. Yet ICU stats remain low and hospitalizations and are not dramatically increasing like in waves 1 & 2.
