COVID-19 Shorter incubation period, easier to get infected, less disease severity
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the average incubation period of the disease in the early stages is 5-6 days. The incubation period has always been short. Up to the present species, Omicron has a mean incubation period of 3 days from the date of exposure to symptoms.
As the incubation period shortens, the existing immune system Get ready to provoke an oncoming attack. Mobilize to fight and prevent it, so it’s easier to keep in touch. Sometimes even with an already formed high level of immunity. can not prevent infection But the level of immunity that exists Still enough to help inhibit the multiplication of the virus in a later period. This is why the severity of the disease is reduced.
Overall, the majority of Thailand’s population, more than 90%, have immunity to COVID-19, both through vaccination. or by spontaneous infection, more than 70% of them are infected, causing infection even if they can be infected the symptoms will be minor
And in the future, recurring immunity repeats. and move more directly into the species due to a large number of infections. The severity of the disease will decrease accordingly. And in the end we will have to live with this virus forever.
