About backing things up:
The article you referenced, referenced a research with a added comment where they declare they can't deduct information about hospitalisation:
> add a comment on page 5 that the crude ratios of hospitalisations to cases give no information on severity on their own due to the differences in the age distribution of Omicron and Delta cases.
https://www.imperial.ac.uk/mrc-global-infectious-disease-analysis/covid-19/report-49-Omicron/ https://www.imperial.ac.uk/mrc-global-infectious-disease-ana...
So your referenced article seems useless about hospitalisation ( the information you extracted from it)
This is also from the UK who had an increase in delta already before Omicron came. My guess is that Denmark would be a better reference to compare hospitalization for Omicron.
Except if you are seeing something that i don't?
- acdha 5y agoI shared that as an example of actual experts saying not to get over eager. Your post is confused enough that I’m not sure whether you thought I was saying it was more or less severe rather than what I intended: we need to wait for the data.
- NicoJuicy 5y agoDidn't got that since I also said it before ? :p Ps. Early data in Denmark is frequently updated and looks positive concerning hospitalisation. ( But still early after only 3 weeks)
