For anyone who hasn’t been paying attention, the Omicron strain that triggered last winter’s massive COVID wave (BA.1) is now extinct. In March, it was supplanted by the even more transmissible BA.2 … which was supplanted in May by the even more transmissible BA.2.12.1 … which is now being supplanted by the (you guessed it) even more transmissible BA.4 and BA.5.
For anyone that cares to know all the facts, that's what viruses do, they get more contagious as they evolve.
What the author of this propaganda piece doesn't mention is they also get less potent/deadly with each new strain.
But that wouldn't scare his audience as much
