Citation needed on whether omicron infections don’t confer immunity to the deadlier delta variant. This is likely not true, so what we are seeing is a billion and quarter people speed running through omicron, which all things considered isn’t as deadly as delta. Whatever horrendous stuff happening there, Id say it’s equally possible it’ll prolong for a long time, or can end rather quickly in a month or two.

If this disease is going anywhere, it's not likely to be back to anything like Delta, as the mutations that have taken the disease down a radically different Omicron path have produced obscenely more infectious results.
