You apparently failed to read past the headline though. If you actually read the article, and it is not that long it should be within your ability to read, NPR quotes actual experts whose worries are being fueled by the data we have on BA.2
""If it doubles again to 8%, that means we're into the exponential growth phase and we may be staring at another wave of COVID-19 coming in the U.S.," says Samuel Scarpino, the manager director of pathogen surveillance at the Rockefeller Foundation.
"And that's of course the one we're really worried about. We're all on the edge of our seats," he says."

"And adding to the concern, one of the remaining antibody treatments for COVID-19 may be less effective against BA.2[link removed, to to NPR to see it], according to recent research.
"There are going to be plenty of people getting sick and ending up on respirators and dying because of BA.2," says Dr. Jeremy Luban, a virologist at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, especially among the millions who still aren't vaccinated."
