One member has literally said exactly that, several more have implied it.

Watching that bloke on YouTube ticking bits of paper doesn’t constitute “having the data” either by the way but it’s ok, I get that people are tired and scared and want to believe the hypothesis that this is a much milder strain and will herald the end of the worse strains.

Which is certainly very possible but we’re nowhere even vaguely close to being able to declare that with any degree of triumph.

In truth none of us have “the data” because it’s too early to have “the data”. You criticise me for being honest about not having that data… whilst lapping up any (too early) interpretation of the data that is available that slants towards the positive.

It’s a position of fear. I get why people do it but it has zero practical utility, and jumping the gun with half-baked beliefs comes with several potential risks.
