Seems to be following the same trend we saw in SA and UK. Incredibly quick rise, very short peak, and began falling rapidly.

If you look at this chart in particular. Although hospitalizations aren't dropping yet but their rate of increase has slowed substantially which is a great indicator TX could be peaking now (or may have already have peaked)

New data suggest omicron cases may have peaked in the Boston area. In December, the level of COVID found in the metro area's sewage rose extremely rapidly. Now, those numbers show a sharp decline.
"When I refreshed the website and saw it, I literally punched the air and let out a hoot because it was something I've been hoping for," said Bill Hanage, a professor of epidemiology and co-director of the Center for Communicable Disease Dynamics at Harvard's T.H. Chan School of Public Health. "It's unambiguously good news."
The size of the decline, as well as the fact that it was consistent across both the northern and southern catchment areas, makes Hanage confident that the spike is over.
Nationally
Some definite good news/cope in US COVID data today. To start with, national test positivity (by date of test) is down week-over-week for the first time since this all began, with promising signs across all regions pic.twitter.com/ni85Jqk2Sh
