For a variant that represented 0.0% percent of cases a few weeks ago, that CI is pretty astounding.

Sure but, like, we knew this was going to happen either this week or next week, right? It was only a question of when.

You know the most interesting thing about this to me is how the absolute number of delta infections decreases so much when omicron comes on the scene. This kinda implies that for at least a significant fraction of the infected, they were exposed to both delta and omicron, and omicron won. I'm really curious how that works. Does anyone know of a clear explanation of the mechanism behind that?
