Omicron this is just a cold?

According to a British study (https://bit.ly/3sPeYOw), the number
of hospitalizations with the omicron decreased by 20-25% compared
to the delta option. Laboratory tests have shown that the omicron
is less capable of infecting lung cells. According to scientists,
this could mean that although this variant of the coronavirus may
partially avoid the human immune response due to the many
mutations in the spike protein, it does not spread as well. However,
it remains to be seen whether the results of these laboratory tests
are consistent with what actually happens.
A Scottish study found that omicron infecting reduced the risk
of hospitalization by two-thirds compared to the delta variant,
and people under the age of 60 were not admitted to hospitals.
These preliminary publications of studies have not yet been
independently verified, but they may support earlier studies in
South Africa, where mostly patients have milder disease. According
to South African data, those infected with omicron are 80% less
likely to need hospital care than those with delta. However, it was
unclear if the results of this study could be transferred to Europe
due to the fact that society in South Africa is, on average, much
younger.
