Omicron will peak relatively soon

Kia ora koutou,

Omicron will end, and it will peak relatively soon. That’s good news!

“…experts now expect New Zealand’s Omicron peak to occur within a fortnight.

And the peak in hospitalisations is expected to occur another two weeks after that, says the Ministry of Health, meaning the country could be on a downward slide as soon as the end of the month.” (from https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/covid-19-omicron-outbreak-todays-case-numbers-aucklands-health-system-faces-growing-pressure/GAVQGQ2WCFYCKJ6DFBYKNGOQHY/)

This graph (see https://chrisbillington.net/COVID_NZ.html, third graph down as at 1.00 4 Mar 2022) displays a modelled timeline and shows a peak in mid March.

Ngā mihi,
