Apa rapid test antigen: how are those countries that are "lying flat" fighting the epidemic

"It is expected that outbreaks will continue to occur everywhere, especially in those areas where measures to prevent transmission have been lifted." WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus warned in mid-March. However, when the new coronavirus and its recombinant mutant strains are raging around the world, some countries such as the United Kingdom, the United States, and Germany have chosen to gradually relax their epidemic prevention measures. Coexisting with the new crown, what is the epidemic situation in these countries now?

UK:1 in 13 people are diagnosed

Since the British government announced the "Coexist with the new crown" plan in February, people who tested positive for the new crown did not need to self-isolate, and the government no longer traced close contacts, but with it, the epidemic data remained high.

The latest figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) show that around 1 in 13 people in the UK have been diagnosed. The results of the study, published on April 6, also showed that the Omicron BA.2 strain was spreading rapidly in England, leading to a surge in infection rates among people over 55 since March, 20 times higher than the previous average. Experts have warned that older people are at a higher risk of becoming seriously ill or dying, and Britain could usher in a new wave of hospitalizations and deaths.

US:After a dinner,The new crown virus "invades" the palace of power

Compared with the epidemic data of more than one million confirmed cases in early 2022, the number of new cases in the United States has dropped sharply to around 40,000 recently. But what is worrying is that with the spread of the Omicron BA.2 strain, the incidence of new crowns in the United States has risen again. The latest statistics from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that in the week ending April 2, BA.2 infections accounted for about 72% of the new crown cases in the United States, of which 84% were in New York and New Jersey.

Reuters also said that with the gradual cancellation of epidemic prevention measures in Washington, the capital of the United States, the Gridiron Club dinner, which was suspended due to the epidemic, also welcomed many officials after two years of silence. Therefore, the new crown virus is once again in the "Palace of Power" in the United States. The spread of the inside - the US Attorney General, the Secretary of Commerce, the chairman of the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee and many other politicians who attended the dinner were "stricken".

Japan and South Korea:After relaxation of epidemic prevention, the epidemic continues to rebound

The new crown epidemic in Japan has recently rebounded, and the number of new infections has increased in 44 of the country's 47 prefectures in the past week. Many experts in Japan believe that the seventh wave of the epidemic has begun, which may be related to the relaxation of epidemic prevention restrictions and the spread of the Omicron BA.2 strain. On March 22, Japan lifted the key epidemic prevention measures implemented in 18 prefectures including Tokyo, and the flow of people in commercial streets increased.

South Korea's new crown epidemic risk has remained at the highest level for five consecutive weeks. Especially since March, the number of confirmed cases in a single day has exceeded 300,000 for several consecutive days. Although the epidemic situation is not optimistic, the South Korean government still chose to relax some restrictive measures from March 5th; from April 4th, the number of people in private gatherings was relaxed to 10 people, and at the same time, it considered to fully lift the number of people in gatherings depending on the situation of the epidemic in the next two weeks. , business time limit measures.

According to the latest statistics from Johns Hopkins University in the United States, as of April 8, Beijing time, more than 490 million people around the world have been infected with the new crown, and more than 6.17 million people have died. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also pointed out a few days ago that outbreaks are expected to continue around the world, especially in those areas where measures to prevent transmission have been lifted.

Tedros said death rates in some countries had reached their highest levels since the start of the pandemic. This reflects the rapid spread of the Omicron strain and the higher risk of death in unvaccinated people, especially the elderly.

He stressed that equitable access to vaccines remains the world's most powerful life-saving tool. Health workers, the elderly and other at-risk groups must be prioritized.
