(ANSA) – ROME, DEC 23 – Two studies, conducted respectively in England and Scotland, reveal a lower level of hospitalization for cases of covid with the Omicron variant than those triggered by the Delta variant. This was reported by Sky News among others.
Research in the UK notes that people infected with the Omicron variant have between 15% and 20% less chance of hospitalization than those infected with the Delta variant. In particular, the study carried out by Imperial College in London underlines that among people infected with Omicron they are 40-45% less likely to spend a night or more in hospital than those infected with Delta. Furthermore, those who have already been infected previously have a 50-60% less chance of hospitalization than those who have not been previously infected. On the other hand, the Scottish study argues that Omicron is associated with a two-thirds reduction in hospitalization risk compared to Delta. (HANDLE).
