Fair, but you don't get to choose what you catch and it's extremely unlikely (like, < .001% in the US) that you'll catch Delta instead of Omicron.

I'd for sure choose Omicron, though.

I think the "Omnicron will protect us" statements are meant to be understood by comparison to a counterfactual world where there's only Delta.
