I'm thinking it's a delta thing (and now omicron), but for the first year of this whole thing I didn't know anybody or even hear of anybody who got seriously ill. I saw the fatality numbers rising, but it was people outside my social sphere. Over the past six months, I've been hearing more and more about it hitting on a second-order basis, where friends of mine know people personally who were seriously ill. I think maybe alpha was really hitting the older vulnerable population hard and I don't know many people like that, whereas delta has been having an impact on a more broad age range.
