I'd say 60% of people I know have covid/just got over covid. Some vaccinated, some not. This feels worse than 2020 somehow. My state reported roughly 26k cases over the span of 48 hours this week...and it's only getting higher from there. Working part time in a barcade has me extremely fearful with omicron, as very few people are actually wearing a mask. I don't feel like getting covid again, but with no one wearing a mask, I don't feel optimistic about my chances. 

I FINALLY got my booster this week....so I have that going for me.

It is less severe. Look at the number of cases vs. those in ICU.

because it's too early to see the impact in ICU

ICU numbers are still increasing and even if it's less severe, with the enormous numbers of cases, everyone will be touched and they are still a lot of old people who are not vaccinated at all

This has nothing to do with severity.

I'll do the math for you 

 

Example :

300 000 cases per day

50% less severe than Delta 

 

= still 150 000 cases with high risks, able to overwhelm the hospitals
