    Has it? The last I heard, the new strains were even more infectious and more dangerous, but people weren’t getting as sick thanks to the vaccines.

    But that was before this current strain, which is resistant to boosters from before late September and is the cause of the second highest spike in infections the US has seen, with an estimated 2 million new cases on the 11th alone. Hopefully, this new strain has mutated to be less dangerous than the original, and that’s why it’s resistant to the vaccines/boosters except for the most recent.
