I don’t think as it stands the worm is actually a threat. There is risk of viruses or bacteria that are resistant to modern treatments thawing out and becoming problematic in the population.

I think the current “fear” is more humorous looking back to the last few years with COVID, Ebola, H1N1, etc.
