WHO: In the future, new crown infection will still be vigilant.

The World Health Organization stated on the 14th that although the number of new crowns in the world has fallen to the lowest level since the epidemic, it is expected that new infection will still occur in the future. Essence

According to the newly released new crown epidemiological reports released by the WHO, from September 5th to 11th, more than 3.1 million newly confirmed cases worldwide were added, a decrease of 28%from the previous week; about 11,000 new death cases were added to 11,000 cases of death cases For example, a 22%decrease from the previous week.

The Director -General of the WHO Tan Desai said at a press conference on the day: "Last week, the number of new crowns reported by various countries since March 2020. As far as the new crowns are popular, we are in an unprecedented advantageous position. ","

Tan Desai also said, "We haven't arrived (victory), but the end is in front of us ... but the marathon will never stop when they see the end, but will do our best and work harder. Now it's time to run more to ensure that the end line is rushing through the end line and harvesting the results of our hard work. "

However, for the upcoming autumn and winter epidemic situation, WHO believes that there may be new infection in the future, and it is urged to maintain a high degree of vigilance.

Maria Vankskhofhov, the leader of the WHO Health Emergency Project, said that the new crown virus is still spreading high around the world. "In fact, we know that the number of cases (new crowns) reported to the WHO is undervalued. We believe that the actual number of cases is far more than the report."

She expects that in the future, at different times, at different times, there will be infection caused by Omikon subtype or even new mutant strains. But she also emphasized that the new wave of infection does not necessarily mean more new deaths, because people already have anti -epidemic tools such as vaccines and antiviral drugs.

Michael Ryan, executive director of the WHO Health Emergency Project, also said that even if the new crowns are popular, countries must still be highly vigilant because their opponents are "a highly changeable virus that is still evolving."
