South Africa, as of 4th December, R = 2.5
The percentage of positive tests nationally: 24.9%

Это уровень, когда зараза практически везде. Gautang побольше, другие провинции поменьше, но уже близко к пику.

Approximately 90% of Covid-19 patients currently in our hospitals require no form of oxygen therapy, and are considered incidental* cases.

То есть, попали в больницу по другому поводу, и там положительно тестированы. В предыдущие волны практически все в больницах нуждались в кислороде.

Patients presentations

• Mild to moderate flu-like symptoms
• Blocked or runny nose
• Headache
• Scratchy or sore throat

Простуда в подавляющем большинстве случаев, лечится дома чайком.

"Omicron variant could act as a natural vaccine in the unvaccinated Britons are very likely to contract the variant in the next couple of weeks. Everybody’s very likely to experience it in the next few weeks. If it is milder, and we know infection induces an immune response, it is possible that this could act as a natural vaccine, getting to those people who have so far been unwilling to be vaccinated."

В общем, все получат свою дозу. Конечно, остаётся неопределённость, но looks good so far.
