Covid-19’s levels of fatality far exceed flu, but Omicron’s reduced severity combined with boosters and the arrival of antiviral pills may change that, writes rachellavin.

‘Weekly Omicron deaths would also need to fall significantly further from the total of 599 Covid-19 deaths recorded since early November to come below Ireland’s peak of 200 confirmed flu deaths in Irish hospitals in the winter season of 2017/18.’ Picture: GettyThat would depend on their comparative severity. Daily case numbers for cold and flu are unknown.
