A new variant appears, this time called omicron;

the Ibex 35 registers its biggest drop since June 2020;

the European Union closes its borders to South Africa ... it seems that history repeats itself without end,

: the majority of the Spanish population is vaccinated with the full schedule, specifically 79.2% of the total population .

And how could it be otherwise, this fact also affects the reality of Covid-19 in Spain and who it affects more strongly.

The profile of people admitted for this virus has been evolving since the global pandemic began and today

. This is how Jesús Díez Menglano, president of the Spanish Society of Internal Medicine (SEMI), explains: "Undoubtedly in recent days hospitalizations have been increasing a little, without being what it had been last year, or the previous one. What we do see is the following, that in the first wave, or when the pandemic began, even last year, at the end of the year, or this year in January, older people entered, and what we see is that with respect to what is happening now has decreased the age of patients who are admitted and who are hospitalized by between 15 and 20 years on average ".

In the framework of the 42nd National Congress of the SEMA held this week in Santiago de Compostela, where the new reality has been analyzed, the doctor adds: "We see some

. But I insist, what we are seeing is many people of those intermediate ages, from 50 to 70 years, who enter with pneumonia ".

Likewise,

at the Royo Villanova Hospital in Zaragoza, the specialist indicates: "The degree of disease that these types of patients present

. And then proportionally many more people who have not received the guideline are also admitted. complete vaccination, generally they have not wanted to be vaccinated ".

Profile of those hospitalized in the sixth wave

What tends to be the

now that they are the majority younger than in the previous waves? "Most of them are progressing well, but we still see some patients who have to be

or are patients who are in serious situations, such as an autoimmune disease , a very important obesity or diabetes ".

But the doctor and researcher highlights: "Overall

. Although it is true that especially people who have not been vaccinated, they do have a serious disease But they are less and of course, well let's say that the drama that was last year, that there were no ICU beds, because we don't have that right now ".

Díez Menglano reports that

, since "if everything goes well, they can be

, but at the moment when the situation becomes a little complicated and they need support respiratory or transfer to intensive care, then it lengthens and that can be multiplied by two or three, there they can be up to 20 days ".

However, the also professor at the University of Zaragoza does not hesitate to affirm: "Most end up being discharged.

. It must be borne in mind that they are now younger people and in previous waves, mortality was also closely associated with age. Older people died more, much more than young people. Which does not mean that there are no serious cases now, there are, but less frequently than is known. I looked at the beginning of the pandemic. "

"This is a

, along with protective measures, the use of a mask, and social distance." And the lawyer adds: "In addition, now there is a much greater knowledge and care, and then there are people who received a complete schedule of two doses of vaccine and who are now going to get the third, or who have already received it."

Finally, the president of the SEMA does not hesitate to declare that "

."

And he indicates: "They are not the ones with the worst prognosis, but let's say that the virus keeps circulating much longer. It is difficult, because they are young people who can understand the situation, but if they have not been vaccinated with all the opportunities that have There have been, and now that there are vaccines for everyone who wishes, that means that these

and in most cases, they will persist without wanting to be vaccinated. Hopefully we can change their opinion and get vaccinated , because that would be very noticeable. "
