Vaccines save Sydney's bacon, yet again. This time Omicron bacon.
There is much talk about the less severe nature of the Omicron variant COVID wave.
A good lead on this topic is this tweet (linked pdf here):
The Australian Omicron wave is attracting it’s fair share of attention, with much valuable chatter on Twitter.
Several previous posts at GMO Pundit have mentioned changes in disease severity during the rollout of vaccination in Australia.
Twitter discussions reveal that a good way to display these changes is by plotting the logarithm of disease metrics against time.
The graph displayed above does this for New South Wales epidemic numbers for the last half of 2021.
To allow for delays before cases turn into disease, average daily cases over a centred 7 day calculation window for reported new cases was used, with a window lag of 11 days prior to day of hospital number plotted.
The graph plots log (average daily cases) and log (reported hospitalisation numbers) against time.
It can be seen that the orange curve representing cases progressively gets lower and lower than blue curves as the weeks of the epidemic rage. This indicates that out of every 100 infections there is less and less time spent in hospital. The trend is either fewer people in hospitals, or shorter stays in the wards, or both.
Watch the gap.
The gap between the two curves is also plotted in grey . This gap number log (cases)-log(hospital numbers). This dramatically displays the overall time trend from July to December of decreased epidemic severity .
Most interestingly, the grey curve indicates that acceleration of gap widening is occurring in the latest weeks of the epidemic.
Is this further widening of the gap caused by a shift from mainly Delta variant (severe disease) to mainly Omicron (with less severe disease)? This will get much attention over the next two weeks.
Whatever the answer to this question, the grey graph curve powerfully emphasises the effective progressive mitigation of epidemic severity achieved from strong vaccine rollout.

For the last 6000 years or so this is what we call cold and flu season. Now, because the TV told you so you believe that it is something else. A cold takes a week to get hold a week duration long and a week to leave about 21 days total. This has been known for centuries. Now because the TV told you so you believe literally anything they tell you. Why? Because you are all sheep with no mind of your own. You have been so completely indoctrinated that the idea of thinking for yourselves scares you to death. So now you are willing to inject unknown poisons into your body that didn’t even go through any animal trials. A medicine so ineffective that the only solution they have is to keep injecting it into you??? WTF idiots wake up! They are now calling for 6 rounds of this unapproved experimental gene altering therapy and you idiots a4e going along to get along. Well screw that and screw you because at the end of the day tyranny can only flourish when good people do nothing. So congratulations useful idiots you win the door prize.
