Last night on NPR there was a scientist cautioning people who think this means the end because it'll burn itself out.

His point was that nobody predicted delta, and nobody predicted omicron. There's no telling how serious the next variant will be (and arguably there's much greater chance of a variant given how many people are getting infected.)
