However, it’s important to note that even if omicron puts only a third as many infected people in the hospital, if cases continue to rise and the variants infect three times as many people, the same number will end up in the hospital despite the lower hospitalization rate. The same goes for deaths.

so far that is not happening as the graphs show no where near the prior death or hospitalizations have been reached

again lets just see and discuss when results are in 

the omicron cases started to mount up on December 27th so by January 27th we should see what omicron is doing to new deaths and hospitalizations

I expect hospitalizations to be slightly higher but I expect deaths to be lower

I can't schedule a booster anywhere within 25 miles of my house, any time within the next 3 weeks.  Some of it is supply, some of it is staffing, but the bottom line is that it's neither simple nor convenient, which are the two primary criteria to make an ongoing vaccine program effective.

I'm not sweating it, I waited a while to get the first two and I'm fine with waiting a while to get the third.  But Travis County-- the county in which Austin and most of the metro area reside-- has gone back to "Stage 5" and has already redefined "fully vaccinated" as being THREE shots.  So I am no longer considered fully vaccinated.  It doesn't really make any difference from an enforcement perspective, but it's an example that we're about to start descending back into the madness.

Uggh.  Your spot on.

deaths will be lower actual not percentage
And yet, deaths are currently rising in South Africa and the UK.

amount of increase is very small and basically a weekly up or down variance

People being dumb doesn't necessitate you being a dick.
Uhh, we can dig up posts from the Spring of 2020 to find who the dicks really are.  Me casually pointing out the reality of the situation falls far short of the ideological filth posted on this thread back then.

I don't recall any of that "filth" back then, but perhaps I missed it.

I thought the discussion in this thread was pretty solid overall.

Yes, but look at it relative to Delta... Which is all of Fall '21. Delta wasn't that big spike from Oct '20 to Mar '21, it's the small rise from summer '21 to now. 

Also note that this is the first week we would expect to see a rise from Omicron and we're seeing... A rise from Omicron. 

If the next week doesn't show a continued increase from where we are, then I'd say you're right. If it does, then I'd say it shows I'm right.

The two highest single day death counts in the last 10 months were Dec 30 and Jan 5... Which means higher than any day since the arrival of Delta...

but I could look at the same time period and find large decreases so looking at a snapshot of 2 days really isnt telling
