Boris Johnson

At least one UK Omicron death

I think the idea that this is somehow a milder version of the virus,

I think that’s something we need to set on one side and just recognise the sheer pace at which it accelerates through the population.

So the best thing we can do is all get our boosters.

Mild symptoms

I am in the Western Cape province in SA where we have just entered our fourth wave, behind other provinces like Gauteng, which seems to have just peaked.

Even though our area hasn’t been hit badly by Omicron infections yet, cases are rising quite quickly. Compared to Delta, where you could feel people were very anxious about contracting that variant and almost everyone knew someone in hospital and most knew someone who had died, the mood is definitely different.

We are just not hearing about mass hospitalisations like in the third wave and those that are testing positive are mainly feeling flu like symptoms for a few days and then recovering. We are really hopeful that Omicron is definitely much milder.
