Hard to say but probably much milder. Vaccination helps reduce the severity also. The natural course of viruses is to mutate and change, as we see with COVID. Delta should fade as Omicron progresses, no way to know what will come next but usually previous infection and vaccination offer some protection and reduce severity.

His protection from natural immunity have waned and Omicron also may evade the immune system. A COVID-19 vaccination is recommended. Continue to monitor breathing and if symptoms occur, please test for Flu and COVID-19.
