I can't seem to find any data on the number of cases/hospitalizations/deaths for Omicron in vaccinated vs unvaccinated, other than the day it first hit and it was like 40 people and 75% of the positives were vaccinated. Surely by now there are tens of thousands of cases.
Delta variant is still here, it is just about to get outcompeted by Omicron and no longer be the dominant strain going around. Here's some good graphs, you can see how it is now the dominant strain in South Africa, but Delta is still there.

Strains hang around as long as they can find enough hosts. The original variant probably is still out there somewhere for a tiny fraction of a percent of new cases or so.Last edited by Garbowski; 12-17-2021 at 10:24 PM.

Hospitalizations in omicron. "Wait a couple weeks." Trouble is it's early, and with a rapid case rise, it's tough to figure it out from the graphs. Somebody needs to carefully trace a cohort of infected people to see the outcomes. I notice quite a few experts are walking away from the early optimism. The phrasing is more along the lines of we don't have any data to support it's less virulent than delta. The limited available data is from South Africa (example), a young population where most recovered from an earlier Covid infection. My sources for this are TWiV and UCSF.

If you rearrange the letters of “delta + omicron” you get “media control”
Or you can get “erotic almond”
Do what you want with this information

It will be really interesting to see how Omicron impacts the health outcomes of the vaxxed and unvaxxed. It’s obviously spreading through both groups fairly easily just based on the numbers.

Got boosted yesterday, Moderna after initial shots were Pfizer. Pretty sore arm overnight and today so far, but not as bad as Pfizer #1. Other than that so far so good.
Getting in to get this was a bit of a shit show. Appointments all seemed to be weeks out, but some locations were listed as accepting walk ins. What they didn't say is that they would try to squeeze walk ins in between those with appointments. Made for long waits and they kept announcing you're not guaranteed to even get a shot if all the appointments show up. They want people to get shots/boosters but still not making it easy.

Including the remaining 7,597 reinfections in the case overview pushes today's case figure to 10,454 — 7,597 are the reinfections being added and 2,857 are new cases. As the pandemic stretches past 20 months, some people have become infected with COVID-19 more than once. This is called a reinfection.
226,972 laboratory-confirmed breakthrough cases of COVID-19 among fully-vaccinated people in New York State, which corresponds to 1.8% of the population of fully-vaccinated people 12-years
There was been 10,454 reinfections in the US of covid.
There has been 226,972 breakthrough cases of covid in ny state alone.
Not recognizing Natural immunity is strange in the mandate. Saying the vaccine offers better protection then natural immunity even stranger.

Most currently deployed monoclonal antibodies are useless against Omicron.
Boosters bring Pfizer up to ~75% effectiveness at protecting against infection from Omicron vs <40% for 6+ mo after 2nd dose. Unboosted Moderna may be less effective than Pfizer. People who had breakthrough infections or vaccination after infection may be extremely immune.
If you had COVID, the reinfection risk is drastically increased by Omicron with your protection probably reduced 3-6X.Over half of all documented COVID reinfection in the entire 2 year pandemic in South Africa occurred in the last few weeks.
It looks like Omicron is no less virulent than previous variants.

Was gonna start separate thread, but I’ll just put this here. We are scheduled to fly to NYC on Xmas day, spend five days in Manhattan, then fly back NYE. The Mrs. and I both vaxxed and boostered, Things One and Two have 2x Pfizer on board. I’m hearing rumbles on the Interwebs that Omichron is starting to really ramp up in the NE, can any NY area Mags confirm? I read SNL may cancel their season finale due to COVID, and some Broadway shows may start going dark (again). We have trip insurance, 100% refundable up to 72 hours in advance….. I really don’t want to cancel, but I also don’t want to endanger my family or get fucking stranded in NY. What says the collective? Any NYC maggots there on the ground? Thanks in advance, and HOLY FUCK I AM SICK OF THIS SHIT. /blog
