Data from who?
Because the population data from South Africa and Denmark with hugely different levels of vaccination point to omicron being mild regardless of vaccine protection.
And frankly, unless we started RCTing the hell of it, population wide data is the only thing that allow us to infer any conclusions right now.

Most of the initial reports I think you're citing were preliminary when Omicron was new and hospitalization data (which is a lagging indicator) hadn't yet caught up.
