Britain reports first death with Omicron coronavirus variant
https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/britain-says-omicron-spreading-phenomenal-rate-2021-12-13/

What the article says: Someone with omicron died in the UK. Died from what? No idea. could have been COVID. Could have come in with a heart attack, got a positive COVID test, then died falling down stairs.


Conclusion: None.

The death numbers take weeks to be recorded - so it's still very unknown if this strain causes less damage and/or death at this point.
