TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the severity of the Omicron variant compared to Delta, with opinions varying on its effects. Some commenters express skepticism about the reliability of sources like Al Jazeera, noting that the variant is perceived as less severe but still potentially harmful. There are broader concerns about government responses to new COVID-19 variants, particularly regarding restrictions on freedom and entry into Thailand.

Doesn't matter, because the Thai government will still overreact. In fact, every new variant is an opportunity for them to steal more of our freedoms and make it harder to enter the country.

Unlike you, I read the material and look up any references cited in the articles. It doesn't matter to me where the article comes from but the content in the article. CNN is famous for lying but even the Lamestream media can't cover up the lies about Covid any more.

 That's refreshing to hear. Have you noticed how so many articles, even if they're legitimate peer reviewed scientific studies are dismissed simply because they appear on what has been deemed to be a dodgy conspiracy theory website. Of course a lot of these dismissers don't realize that because of mainstream media censorship it is only those so-called dodgy websites where you're able to see alternative but legitimate opinion.
