my dad told me he had malaria and dysentery in his 20s and was a heavy smoker, so if he gets covid going to the dominican republic in January, he will probably be okay. after all, it's mild.

It's saying the lung tissue isn't affected as much with Omicron, and therefore oxygen levels don't drop like a rock in the infected like they do with other variants:



bear in mind this is all in hamsters

the clinical outcomes of the infected hamsters have about as much relevance to us as the 10% weight gain per week in the uninfected ones

was trying to see if they humanize them (just in cell cultures), and found this:

Syrian hamsters as a small animal model for SARS-CoV-2 infection and countermeasure development
https://www.pnas.org/content/117/28/16587

In conclusion, our data indicate that hamsters are highly susceptible to infection with SARS-CoV-2, without the need for prior adaptation, and develop severe pneumonia similar to COVID-19 patients. Importantly, the use of this animal model would facilitate the rapid evaluation of vaccine or antiviral therapy candidates at a relatively low cost compared to other animal models such as ferrets and nonhuman primates, which have also been shown to be susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection (28, 29). In addition, the vast majority of hamsters did not die upon SARS-CoV-2 infection, which is consistent with human infections. It would be interesting and important to develop COVID-19 hamster models with comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, or obesity (30). Taken together, our findings demonstrate that this Syrian hamster model will be useful for understanding SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis and testing vaccines and antiviral drugs.
