Modelling released by @SKGov predicts DRAMATIC rise in cases, hospitalizations, & ICU admits w/ #Omicron if no additional measures to reduce contacts (i.e. gathering & capacity limits).
Briefing today: NO measures to be implemented at present. Wait and see.

Here is ICU / non-ICU modelling data. Not great, as you can see. Also not being taken into account - scores of HCWs taken out of circulation as a result of widespread community transmission.
Who will look after all the patients? Many HCWs have already moved on.

Once again, there is an appeal to personal responsibility for #SK citizens to make good choices, do the right thing.
No surprises here. Get vaccinated, improve ventilation, use your best mask, etc.

Given the history & approach of @SKGov thus far in 2021 with our 3rd & 4th waves, none of this is a real surprise for those who have been following closely.
The #SK Omicron plan is boosters, rapid test, personal responsibility, and pray for lessened severity.

HCWs who are left in #SK who have been busting their asses from day 1 of pandemic are completely burnt out & exhausted.
The idea of having to face a 5th wave with no real support other than a pat on the back from @SKGov is, for me at least, soul-crushing.

I pray that Omicron is significantly less severe. It's #SK's only hope at this point. Other places experiencing Omicron before us will tell the story.
It's a massive gamble. Many lives, and the well-being of #SK's remaining HCWs, are all on the line.
