| Omicron wahrscheinlich (!) deutlich milder als Delta |  |
Ein vorsichtiger Funke Hoffnung lässt sich aus dieser Meldung der BBC entnehmen:
The wave of Omicron appears to be milder according to preliminary studies published in the UK and South Africa.
Early evidence suggests fewer people are needing hospital treatment - potentially around a two-thirds reduction - than with other variants. However, the Scottish study is based on very few cases and had few people over 65, who are most at risk. And the concern remains that even if Omicron is milder, the sheer number of cases could overwhelm hospitals.

Auch wenn Omicron hochansteckend ist, wären 2/3 weniger Hospitalisierungen schon eine tolle Sache.
