A complete contradiction to earlier news reporting..... Rolling Eyes

The Omicron variant could cause between 25,000 and 75,000 deaths in England over the next five months if no additional measures are taken beyond Plan B, according to experts.

New modelling from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) used experimental data to look at how Omicron may spread as the country heads into 2022.

The study, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, suggests that Omicron could potentially cause more COVID cases and hospitalisations in England than during the wave of January 2021, if additional control measures are not taken.

Under the best-case scenario, the variant could lead to a peak of more than 2,000 daily hospital admissions, with 175,000 hospitalisations and 24,700 deaths between 1 December 2021 and 30 April 2022, the projection suggests.

It’s not so much the disease. It’s the misreporting/lies/confusion that surrounds this virus.

That is what makes me sick.
