Rockefeller Center for Public Policy, in an article warning about the outlook for COVID-19 as new Omicron cases begin to fall. “It is possible that the end of the Omicron wave will be followed by a period of low case numbers and low risk,” Hoen said. “But we know that this virus can evolve to evade immunity conferred by currently available vaccines or by previous infection, and when that happens, we will probably experience another epidemic wave.” (Picked up by Valley News.)
