I heard being vaxxed but unboosted gives you the same odds against omicron as unvaxxed against delta or something? Idk. I always wear my mask, but should I stop eating at restaurants and stuff too?

All 3 doses were Pfizer if it matters

    65-70% chance of not needing hospitalization

    I'm pretty sure it's way higher than that. A quick search shows that that's probably around where the rate of prevention of symptomatic infection is, rather than of hospitalization.

      You're probably right. My memory is absolute shit right now, and I wish I still had the source. Hospitalization rate was still up there with Delta for breakthrough cases, though.

        TERF island state media says ~75% protection from symptomatic infection based on early analysis, but the article is over a week old already.
