Comparing numbers doesn’t make sense. It is scientifically proven that this variant is more transmissible….much more to delta than delta was to beta & subsiquintly to origin. Numbers will go up but what needs to be tracked now is hospitalisations. The curbs now are mostly to let this go through the population slow & steady so that everyone don’t catch it all at once.

Let's say the positivity rate tomorrow is above 1% then based on grap guidelines more restrictions would be put in place.. Also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By old guidelines it should have entered ember alert from yellow. But they have decided to wait as no case has been had to give care yet. But yeah it’s too early to say there won’t be any.

radicaldude Posted December 29, 2021 Report Share Posted December 29, 2021 What % of indian population is actually vaxxed? Also i won't take the word "mild" for granted. We don't know the long term effects of the virus yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, some of these infections might be delta as well. Who knows. It's not as if we are sequencing the samples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnK Posted December 29, 2021 Report Share Posted December 29, 2021 Delta couldn’t have created any sort of sharp spike in most of India. It was out there long enough & there were no visible restrictions for far too long. It swept through most of the country in early 2021 & then some southern states later on. The cases were visibly gone & it can’t really be looming around without showing it’s effects for this long. It is omicron for sure. The government should have greenlit boosters in time,we are running a bit late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know the long term effects of the virus yet. 90% with first dose and 60% with both for eligible population. Doesnt include below 18 and duuno if it's according to the old census as new one hasn't been done yet or maybe they're using some other data.

AnK Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 Deaths down in UK by roughly 34% Hospitalisation increasing but stay is very short leading to no actual increase in burden on Healthcare. Intensive care number starting to go down in comparison to a week ago. Omicron displacing Delta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnackChap Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 If omicron cases are so mild how come people are lining up to get themselves tested. Mumbai cases have gone up 4 times in 2 days from 600 on Monday to 2500+ yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
