All Covid-19 variants have a lipid envelope, all C

They think Omicron is half as severe as Delta but Delta is twice as severe as the original Covid-19 which would put Omicron on par with the original Covid-19. What you would see in Omicron is a lower ICU rate per capita than Delta and probably lower than the original Covid-19 offset a bit by the higher transmissibility. I would think intubations in Omicron would be low but comorbidities and a weakened immune system would mean a greater chance of higher lung infectivity. But then you still have Delta infections in the mix.
