game changer after a number-one game changer, which are the vaccines and boosting. so we know that people are getting infected at high rates with this more transmissible variant. our numbers are sky rocketing here in illinois as they are across the country. and being able to have something that is oral, so easy, easier than giving an i.v. infusion that you can get before you get to the hospital nap will help decompress the hospitals and save lives. so you re seeing this data as well i know about several international studies from countries that have been hit by omicron before us, and it s showing that, yes, it spreads quickly but doesn t cause as severe illness and therefore doesn t send as many people to the hospital. i don t want to minimize where you are because i know that at the icu level you re still flooded, but are you encouraged by the data?
