Chart to compare the Admissions projections from the 8-Sep SPI-M-O consensus statement with actuals.
This are the projections being used as basis for calls for additional restrictions.

Note that the report is marked as "PRELIMINARY � NOT PEER REVIEWED" and "work in progress".
Imperial "Hypothetical Country" Omicron Deaths Model from 16-Dec Report with latest England actuals applied in red. A bit rough due to low resolution input image but good enough to illustrate how the model doesn't match England reality.
Warwick 30-Dec Projections based on Early Omicron Variant Dynamics in England with latest UKHSA actuals applied in red. I think it says that if Omicron is half as bad as Delta then with no further restrictions (dark red line) we'll have 1000 deaths per day by 7th January.
Also included in the 30-Dec Warwick document (considerably less prominently) is a model for Omicron being 10% as severe as Delta and with 20% strength of restrictions. This still has England at about 310 daily deaths by 07-Jan, growing to a peak of 600 later in the month.
