CDC: Zero Omicron Deaths in U.S., Only One Person Needed Hospitalization

The CDC confirmed today that the Omicron variant of COVID-19 has killed precisely zero people in the U.S., with only one case requiring hospital treatment.
As BBN News reports, the Centers For Disease Control has revealed “there were no deaths associated with the Omicron coronavirus variant in the country so far.”
In addition, only one of the 43 cases detected “with initial follow-up” needed hospital care.
The health body also revealed that “many of the first reported cases of Omicron variant infection appear to be mild,” a conclusion which is very much in line with evidence gathered globally.
Out of the 43 cases, eight people had not been vaccinated while 14 had been double vaccinated, meaning the total of people who had received either a single or double dose and caught the variant was 35 out of 43.
The CDC’s announcement once again underscores how global panic over the new variant is completely inconsistent with its mild severity.
