Meanwhile, big information related to Omicron infection has been revealed, due to which people are expected to get some relief. In fact, it has been claimed by doctors and major hospitals in Delhi and Mumbai that the oxygen level of a person infected with Omicron will not drop too low after being admitted to the hospital and due to this, they will not need to install an oxygen cylinder.

Hospitalization due to Omicron and Covid: 

A new study has revealed that the infection caused by the Omicron variant is not more serious and that is why people do not need to be afraid of it. This new study conducted in South Africa has revealed that in cases reported in the country due to Omicron, symptoms are less severe than those seen in those infected compared to previous waves of Covid-19 and this has led to hospitalization. The number of recruits is also less.

Infection not serious in Omicron:

In a survey related to Omicron infection by Gauteng province of South Africa, it has been said that there is a decrease in the cases of Covid. The study looked at the clinical severity of hospitalizations due to SARS-CoV-2 infection and compared it to the first four weeks of beta-dominated second and delta-dominated third waves in Gauteng province. 

During the fourth wave, 60.1 percent and 66.9 percent in the second and third wave

During the fourth wave, 28.8 percent had severe disease, compared to 60.1 percent and 66.9 percent in the second and third waves.

The proportion of cases admitted during the first four weeks of the Omicron-dominated fourth wave in Gauteng province of South Africa was lower and those admitted were less severe, as per research 

While the Omicron variant is not critical, the previous hospitalization rate has been low compared to the waves.
