Thank you, so omicron still sends half as many patients to the ICU as precious strains however its way more infectious sending overall more into hospitals
Here's the data from that study on that. Much lower percentage admitted with Omicron but more than double the patients
Quote:
association between S gene target failure (SGTF) infection, compared to non-SGTF infection, and hospitalisation, South Africa, 1 October – 30 November 2021
Hospital admission n/N (%)
SGTF (Omicron) 256/10,547 (2%)
Non-SGTF (non-Omicron) 121/948 (13%)
