It’s too soon to predict the full impact Omicron could have on deaths and illness across the U.S.

But data in some of the earliest-hit cities is beginning to show what the future could hold. Here's what it shows.

nyti.ms/34p2eUq
In cities hit early by Omicron, Covid deaths have begun to spike, although at a slightly reduced scale compared to previous peaks. But with the extraordinarily high case count, even a proportionally lower death toll could be devastating. nyti.ms/34p2eUq
Hospitals in early-hit cities such as Chicago are seeing more patients with Covid than at any time last year. Some doctors say patients are faring better than in previous waves. But the number needing intensive care or ventilation is approaching levels not seen since last winter.

Virus cases have hit new highs in the U.S.
Hospitalizations topped the height of the Delta wave.
Deaths are starting to rise.

If the Omicron variant is less severe overall, it can be hard to understand the trends. Here’s how to think about the data now. nyti.ms/3HN4N1a
All but 13 states have seen record virus cases in the past week. They're rising everywhere.

Experts say it’s not as alarming as past waves, but caution that the sheer volume of cases could still lead to significant numbers of extremely sick people. nyti.ms/3HN4N1a
Rising cases should serve as a warning, experts say, to adjust behaviors and policies to reduce infections and protect the most vulnerable. Hospitalization and death figures reveal more about the disease’s severity, but they tend to lag behind. nyti.ms/3HN4N1a

A violent clash against a mob of angry rioters was not the battle that the U.S. Capitol Police force was prepared or equipped to win. For many of the officers, their bodies, minds and lives will never be the same. nyti.ms/3EOjFul
Over many months, @susandominus and @lukebroadwater interviewed more than two dozen officers and their families, reviewed internal documents, congressional testimony and medical records, and found a department that is still hobbled and dysfunctional. nyti.ms/3EOjFul
It is widely known that more than 80 officers from the Capitol Police alone were injured during the violence. Less understood is how long-lasting the damage, physical and psychological, to the Capitol Police force has been, @susandominus and @lukebroadwater report in @NYTMag.

South Korea is reckoning with a new type of political correctness enforced by angry young men who bristle at any forces they see as undermining opportunity — and feminists, in their minds, are enemy No. 1. nyti.ms/3EOSak6
Inequality is one of the most delicate issues in South Korea, where deepening economic uncertainty is fed by runaway housing prices, a lack of jobs and a widening income gap. nyti.ms/3EOSak6
"We don't hate women, and we don't oppose elevating their rights," said Bae In-kyu, 31, the head of one of the country’s most active anti-feminist groups. "But feminists are a social evil." nyti.ms/3EOSak6

"How is this happening to me?" A 32-year-old pregnant woman received a call from her doctor's office saying that a prenatal blood test indicated that her fetus might be missing part of a chromosome. nyti.ms/3zeAMnX
The next day, doctors tested a small piece of her placenta and it showed that the initial result was wrong. Today, her 6-month-old shows no signs of the condition he initially screened positive for. nyti.ms/3zeAMnX
On product brochures and test result sheets, prenatal testing companies advertise their findings as "reliable" and "highly accurate" to pregnant women and their doctors, offering "total confidence" and "peace of mind." nyti.ms/3zeAMnX
