A week of attending duties and monitoring the trends across The US- Here is what I observed:
US has 93-97% Omicron now
Some states went this week from 10% to 66%
All should be at 97% by next week.
Hospitalizations rising.. For and with about 55% & 45%

The Booster raises your protection of reinfection & hospitalization close to 90% in > older than 65.
The problem is anything less than 3 dose (boosted) reinfection is very likely & hospitalization is about 5-10% of infected depends on risk status
US has only 36% boosted people

That means Omicron has about 256 Million people who aren't 3 dose, or boosted to go through.
I expect those vaxxed X2 w/prior infection to have less severe illness, and if not high risk, not be admitted
those less than 2 dose and PI, are most vulnerable
Get the booster!

In some hard hit states, PA, we are seeing about 90% of hospitalized patients are the unvaccinated.
Updated data from most states is not current, and w/ Omicron, every day's data will effect a change on the trend and charts.

Look at cases by vaccination status and Hospitalization by vaccination status-images.
Omicron represents a public health crisis because:
So many will get and say "it's the flu" or mild, but fail to isolate and spread it to HCWs, at risk people who may die.
Healthcare burden
