Covid-19 cases seem to have plateaued late last week after surging rapidly in the first two weeks of January.

The statistical downtrend and the big number of daily recoveries we are seeing are clear signs that we may be over the hump in this latest pandemic wave.

The downward trend of cases in the Philippines mirrors the current developments in the United States and some parts of Europe, where the Omicron first struck hard. These developed nations, especially the UK, are slowly reopening their economy after a relatively low hospitalization rate. We can possibly adopt a hybrid Level 2 with some Level 3 restrictions retained. Authorities may keep some of the Level 3 restrictions under Level 2, especially in establishments where social distancing is more difficult to avoid. They may, in the meantime, restrict some social events under Level 2 until Omicron blows away.
