Covid: Omicron study suggests major wave in January
[The UK is facing a substantial wave of
Omicron infections in January without
further restrictions, scientists say.
The number of deaths from the variant by the
end of April could range from 25,000 to 75,000 depending
on how well vaccines perform, they said.
But the experts behind the study said there
was still uncertainty around the modelling.
In the worst-case scenario tougher restrictions
may be needed to stop hospitals being
overwhelmed, they said.
The work by the London School of Hygiene
and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) is not a crystal ball.
It does not say what will happen with
the Omicron variant of coronavirus but gives
a range of possible outcomes.
High uptake of the booster dose is likely to mitigate
the impact of the Omicron wave, the researchers said.
