According to a recent U.S. research, the Omicron variant seems to result in less severe COVID-19 than reported during earlier times of significant coronavirus transmission, including the Delta wave, with

shorter hospital stays
, less need for critical care, and fewer fatalities. Regardless, the rapidly spreading Omicron variant has resulted in a record number of infections and hospitalizations,
putting a pressure on
the US healthcare system.

Despite the sharp increase in COVID-19 cases, the percentage of

hospitalized patients admitted to intensive care units
(ICU) during the current Omicron wave was approximately 29 percent lower than during the previous winter's surge and approximately 26 percent lower than during the Delta wave, according to a study published on Tuesday in the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
's (CDC)
Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report
.

Though much is still needed to be done regarding the spread of Omicron, there is a lot of positivity to keep note of.
