One thing that I don't really understand about the "natural immunity" crowd is the inherent risk in getting natural immunity.
I get that it's reasonably effective, but whole point about having the vaccine is you get the effectiveness without the same risk of getting getting so sick that you end up in a hospital or dying. And even for Omicron, the risk is at least one order of magnitude more for both.
In terms of bypassing a vaccine requirement- if someone is going to play that card, they should be the one to foot the bill and the time to test themselves to prove that they are ok.
In terms of the numbers, we are now getting to 12 months ago, which is good. If we can fully get back to last summer, when daily cases were less than 15k nationwide, and stay there, hope....
