"A top South African doctor says the country is mainly seeing "mild disease" and intensive care units are not overwhelmed" - they also said that a fortnight ago.

I see no climate of fear in any walk of life. Only a dull moral sapping morass of half arsed opinion and speculation which is processed by the media and regurgitated as dumbed-down headlines designed to enrich the lives of the soap opera devouring proletariat. There. I feel better for that.

here is one of many from a SA doctor if it pleases you jno but the main thrust of this post is the dropping of the red list status.

okay, here's a story - recent - suggesting Omicron may have mild effects in SA because so many citizens have already had Covid and it's provided them with some sort of immunity

That's sort of good news, but nobody seems to know yet how good the immunity is or how long it lasts. I don't plan on going there (lovely country - last time I was there Winnie Mandela gave me a wave as I went by), and personally I think I'd be cautious about taking in arrivals from there.
I have much more faith in Javid than in Boris, however, so I'll just have to hope he's right.

what's climate got to do with it?

However, studies have shown that the annual increase in colds and flu particularly coincides with when the temperature outside and relative humidity indoors are lower. Flu viruses survive and are transmitted more easily in cold, dry air. So it’s reasonable to think that the same may be true for the COVID-19 coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which has a similar size and structure.
Laboratory experiments with coronaviruses and similar viruses have shown that they do not survive well on surfaces when the temperature and relative humidity are high
