There's little, if any, evidence that the rebound cases are "more severe" than original infection. Further, other factors likely played a role in Paxlovid-linked rebound cases.

Blackballed? As a fervent supporter of Kanter’s last team, he couldn’t stay on the floor because he’s looked increasingly washed over the past season and a half. You can’t play him in end-of-game situations because his interior defense is so bad. Pile all that onto his off court pursuits to become a right-wing TV talking head and penchant for trying to spark Twitter wars with star players (while completely ignoring them on the floor days later). He’s been waived by two teams in under 3.5 years.
Miles Bridges is presently out of the league because of his off court behavior and drawing negative attention to the NBA. Allen Iverson refused to accept a bench role and couldn’t find a team as a result. Stephon Marbury caused so many issues for the Knicks in 08-09 that they’d rather waive him, pay him to stay away from the team and paved the way for him to sign with an in-division rival (and reigning champion). Sometimes personality (and routinely piss-poor behavior) supersedes talent. Kanter is one such case.

Regardless, a vote for a democrat and not a Qanon/Trumper pick is harm reduction for this country, a vote for sanity/democratic fair elections, and an affront to this "I'm a TV guy/former athlete... maybe I should run for shit I'm woefully unqualified for?" thing that the GOP has ratcheted up once more in the wake of Trump's first term.

Neat, where's the Democratic party tacitly supporting that kind of thing, poking fun at it, or turning the other cheek on shit as egregious as January 6th?

Obviously just blind speculation…
Previously unimaginable housing insecurity and economic crises spurred by overpopulation and a lack of sufficient housing on a massive scale, which could stem from a population “rebound” in the wake of some sort of mass casualty event (coastal/inland flooding, plague, blight, nuclear, etc).
More novel viruses/bacteria, whether unearthed out of permafrost, extraterrestrial super-germ or AI-produced bio-weapon.
Increased ease of travel — hypersonic (or the 2322 equivalent) commercial air travel, high-speed rail — due to technological advancement and a reliance on cheap renewable fuel sources… but less cordiality between nations, warring and global unrest make experiencing cultures in other parts of the world unsafe and prohibitively expensive. Capitalism maybe falls out of favor among (most) western nations.
Unless mankind has some sort of impromptu moment of clarity and opts to recalibrate their default settings, the poor will continue to be the apparatus by which the elite/mega-rich hold onto their power and influence. Life will become much harder for many, many more people.
