I got to thinking:

If Omicron is as bad as they say it is. Not fatal so much as infectious. I started to think about the problem of Contagion when you get 1 million people getting infected per day in the U.S.

The first problem is even though it is not fatal necessarily (at least to young people under 30 maybe) what does it do potentially to people over 30 or over 40?

In other words you might now have something so contagious that a country would have to stop flying people on passenger planes, close all colleges and schools, and hospitals would be overrun, not necessarily with dying people from Omicron but very very sick people who wouldn't die but would be in the hospital a month or so. 

Then you might have people not able to work at any location where other people were outside of their families if they were over 45 or 50 years old because of the hospitalization factor. 

So, what you might have to do is for ONLY people under 45 years of age delivering food and doing any hazardous jobs because they right now are only 4% of the actual fatalities from Covid.

Because 21% of the deaths are 45 to 65 and 75% of the deaths are ages 65 and up.

So, this then means 96% of all fatalities from Covid are from people over 45 years of age.

So, it is only logical for the ones who aren't dying from it at the rate of the over 45 people should be doing most of the work to help everyone else stay alive. So, people over 45 should likely stay at home and work on Zoom so they can stay alive during the next few months starting with January and the under 45 people who won't tend to die from Omicron should be out in public more working.

I know the world is not an ideal place but if it were ideal this would be the plan in order for everyone over 45 not to get sick (or die) from Omicron between now and say April?
