Something I wonder about: Of those who turned to rapid testing as a way resume gatherings while being as responsible as possible, how many ended up contracting the virus after being lulled into a false sense of security?
And of those people, do they regret having chanced it?

I don't think the number of people contracting the virus this way would be large, but it's certainly not zero.
I just wonder how those people feel now.
Obviously, where there's serious/severe illness or worse, there's almost always regret.
But Omicron is different.

I don't think there's anything wrong with using rapid tests to do things, however imperfect they are.
But I wonder whether the severity of Delta might have discouraged people from risking much of anything before, unlike now, with Omicron, which is seen as minimally dangerous.

This is another factor, too:
How many negative results would have been positive with the combination throat + nasal swab?
