I for one, welcome this development in ancient horrors. Modern horrors feel like they've jumped the shark a bit, tbh.

There was some 90s Goth/industrial band who sampled that line "we're not who we are" in a song and I can't for the LIFE of me remember who it was.

If this worm was even nearly as dangerous as people keep pretending, it probably would still be around like other dangerous things like malaria.
