The team has created an online calculator that allows you to enter a person's age, vaccination status, height and weight, as well as major Covid risk factors.
If she had been vaccinated and did not have a major Covid risk factor, like an organ transplant, her chance of dying after contracting Covid would be 1 in 872, according to the calculator.
For a typical 65-year-old man, the risk would be 1 in 434.
Among 75-year-olds, the risk would be 1 in 264 for a typical woman and 1 in 133 for a typical man.
In the 2019-20 flu season, about 1 out of every 138 Americans 65 and older who had flu symptoms died from them, according to the C.D.C. And Omicron probably presents less risk than the British calculator suggests, because it uses data through the first half of 2021, when the dominant version of Covid was more severe than Omicron appears to be.
NEW: Study on severity of those infected with the #OmicronVariant compared to the #DeltaVariant:??53% less risk of symptomatic hospitalization??74% less risk of ICU admission??91% less risk of death0?Omicron patients required mechanical ventilationhttps://t.
The risk assessment with Omicron is what's ley here along with the metrics that this virus is on the downturn.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
