The Omicron is mild for the vaccinated will persist as thousands are riding it out at home trying to dodge the government. The seriously ill and dying are predominantly over 65 with one or less dose of a vaccine.

The Omicron is mild for the vaccinated will persist
Well sure, of course its mild in the immune. Just taking a poke at the "its mild in South Africa so it'll be mild everywhere else" pseudoscience we've seen so much of.
Will be interesting to see what happens with vaccine waning and Omicron. Hopefully protection from serious illness persists for a long time.
Hopefully the situation in Hong Kong will finally put the "Omicron is Mild" argument to bed.
On that note, a good friend of mine was hospitalised with Omicron in Netherlands today. He's really not well. Only 28. Nervous as fuck for him.
