LONDON (BLOOMBERG) - Omicron appears to be less severe but more contagious than any other Covid-19 strain to date, a British government study concluded, bolstering research that has shown a lower risk of hospitalisation from the fast-spreading variant. People infected with Omicron are 50 per cent to 70 per cent less likely than those infected with Delta to be admitted to hospitals, the UK Health Security Agency said on Thursday (Dec 23). Patients infected with Omicron are also 31 per cent to 45 per cent less likely to arrive at emergency departments than those infected with Delta. The agency' s data came with an important caveat: While a booster shot improves protection against Omicron, its effectiveness starts to wane more rapidly than with Delta and is 15 per cent to 25 per cent lower starting 10 weeks after the third dose. The agency also cautioned that the new variant is so infectious that it could still produce significant numbers of severe cases. The findings build on studies released a day earlier with similar assessments of Omicron' s lower hospitalisation risk - a rare reassurance for a variant whose transmissibility is fast overtaking Delta' s. Researchers in Scotland found Omicron was associated with a two-third lower risk of hospitalisation compared to the earlier variant, while a South African study pegged the reduction of hospitalisation risk at 80 per cent. Another study, from an Imperial College London team working with a larger data set, found that people infected with Omicron were almost half as likely to need an overnight hospital stay. Separate developments related to prevention and treatment added to the moment of optimism in a pandemic that has killed almost 5.4 million people worldwide and sickened millions more. A third dose of AstraZeneca' s Covid-19 vaccine significantly boosted neutralising antibodies against Omicron, according to lab studies at the University of Oxford. A separate study involving a booster made by China' s Sinovac Biotech - producer of one of the most world' s most widely used Covid-19 vaccines - did not fare as well. That shot did not produce sufficient levels of neutralising antibodies to protect against Omicron, according to lab test results published on Thursday. The research suggests that people who have received Sinovac' s shot, known as CoronaVac, should seek out a different vaccine for their booster.

It just show on-going lab study result, any side effect to take 3rd dose? Anyway, always maintaining social distancing, reduce unnecessary social gathering , wash hand frequently and wear mask properly is the better way.

Covid news - live: UK records 106,000 new cases as JCVI says 5-year-olds should not get jab unless vulnerableFurther advice regarding Covid vaccination for all children will be issued in due course A further 106,122 Covid-19 cases have been recorded in the UK - a new one-day record and the first time daily reported cases have risen above 100,000. The government also said 140 more people had died within 28 days of testing positive for Covid-19. The first six-figure total came just hours after experts said children aged five to 11 who are in a clinical risk group or who are a household contact of someone who is immunosuppressed, should be offered a Covid vaccine. The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) ruled out immediately advising jabs for that age group. It comes as a record 968,665 booster and third doses of were reported in the UK on Tuesday, beating the previous record of 940,606 doses on Saturday. More than 30.8 million booster and third doses have now been delivered in the UK, with 6.1 million in the past seven days. |
