Deaths per day will peak out about 2047 by early February. Until then its up and up. This is Omicron: more contagious by a lot, less deadly by about 20%. The net result is doubling death per day.
Oh yea, we believe you.
Well, yes, if they continue to let people sit around without early treatments at home until they have to be hospitalized.
(about 2047)
But Global Warming destroys everything in 2030!
Oh, noooooooo!! Go get lots of shots and make sure to wear a piece of dirty laundry on your face at all times!! 😱
“less deadly by about 20%”
I hear it’s less deadly by more like 80%
And when they turn out to be wrong they never said that.
Pandemic models are just about as useful as climate change models.
Right.
I don’t see people dead on the street.
The Ohmygod mutation has hit!
Oh FFS.
Only for the vaxxed though.
I just checked for AZ and compared to last year we seem to be on a downward trajectory.
I think we’re safe.
Why did you put “U Washington” as your source when the link goes to “healthdata.org?”
Is there a connection there because I see no mention of U Washington at the site.
After this wave, it’s likely we will see COVID-19 become endemic in our population. To get an idea of what that would look like, take a look at India after their devastating Delta wave.
So they’ve “Reported” one Omicron “Death” in the US
This study and headline means we will have 2 Omicron related deaths in the US by February
Every body PANIC!!!!!!!!!!
“less deadly by about 20%”
…………………………………..
I hear it’s less deadly by more like 80%
*****************************************
I believe it has 80% fewer hospitalizations. And the hospitalizations are for fewer days prior to discharge. I suspect the deaths FROM Omicron will be few and far between.
Because of its highly infectious nature there will be deaths WITH Omicrom of people who are checking into hospital for other deadly reasons which the patient actually dies from.
“Well, yes, if they continue to let people sit around without early treatments at home until they have to be hospitalized.”
Since testing is not readily available, the disease may have progressed by the time of a positive test. Good luck buying a home test now.
The treatments are limited since the monoclonal antibodies don’t work with Omicron, and the new pills won’t be available on a large scale for some time.
So unfortunately, it’s likely that deaths will increase sharply.
The coming death reports attributed to Omicron will be nothing more than cover for deaths from ADE.
