Well, Omicron cases are growing really fast. Like explosive, skyrocketing, vertical growth fast. If we continue this rate of spread, I would venture to say that there is no modern day virus that has spread this fast and this far ever before.

“anytime someone talks to me about “cases” I ask 3 questions:
how many of these people are sick?
how many of these sick people are sick enough to be hospitalized?
how many of them have died?”

Most interesting bit from this article:
“At 24 hours after infection, Omicron replicated 70 times higher than the Delta variant and the original SARS-CoV-2 virus in the bronchial tissue.
Interestingly, Omicron replicated less efficiently (10 times lower) in lung tissue than the original SARS-CoV-2 virus”
So it grows faster in your throat, causing you to cough and spread it, but to do that focuses less on the lungs. Hopefully that is a good sign for reduced danger.
