Hospitals are getting filled with Omicron cases. This also affects people who don't have it.
All this talk about "comorbidities," yet you don't recognize the obvious.
Let's say you're injured in a "motorcycle accident." You get admitted to the hospital because you require urgent medical care.
The hospital, unfortunately, is also dealing with a huge surge in Omicron cases, because despite the lower death rates, Omicron is still a BFD. (Part of the reason for lower death rates is because we're much better at treating COVID these days than at the start of the pandemic.)
So now you're in an environment where Omicron is floating around. You're in urgent care because of injuries. Who knows what your immune system has to fight off as a result of your injuries? Infections, broken blood vessels, broken bones, loss of blood, etc.
All of those represent "comorbidities," which using your "logic," makes you a perfect Darwin candidate when it comes to dying from COVID.
That's why the Omicron surge affects everyone, and that it's much better if you're vaccinated than not.
After all, hospitals report an average of four days of hospitalization for vaccinated COVID patients, vs. two weeks for unvaccinated patients.
