Medical staff in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv say the regional children's hospital there is 90 percent full, with over 100 children admitted, including babies. Doctors at the facility say the omicron variant appears to be less grave than previous strains of COVID-19 but that children, most of whom have not been vaccinated, appear to be more susceptible to it.
