Should be noted that South Africa had very little COVID of any kind when its Omicron wave started, whereas in the US, we have big Delta problems. To what extent Omicron comes "on top of" Delta as opposed to displacing Delta seems like an important question. — PolitiTweet.org

Hospitalization numbers are still growing in Gauteng province, but not by much (290 in ICU vs. 255 a week ago). And since their cases have begun to decline, hospitalizations likely near peak too, and much lower than prior waves. https://t.co/IADxxEjgfW — PolitiTweet.org
