Sorry, WHO is back with bad news! Global COVID-19 Rises Again


Jakarta

The World Health Organization (WHO) said that the world’s COVID-19 cases had begun to decline in the past month, although many countries have also reported a decline in the number of COVID-19 testing. However, last week’s data showed that the global COVID-19 trend was increasing again.

There are a number of factors, including the BA.2 Omicron subvariance that is starting to dominate in some countries. The BA.2 Omicron subvariant which is often called the ‘Son of Omicron’ has also been reported in Indonesia.

“This increase comes despite a reduction in the number of testing in some countries, which means the cases we are seeing are only the tip of the iceberg,” WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told reporters.

“Low vaccination rates in some countries, driven in part by some misinformation, are the reason for the increase,” the WHO official said. NBC News.

The world’s new COVID-19 cases jumped 8 percent compared to the previous week, with 11 million new cases and more than 43,000 new deaths reported as of March 7-13. This is the first increase since late January.

The biggest jump occurred in the WHO’s Western Pacific region, which includes South Korea and China, where cases increased by 25 percent and deaths by 27 percent.

Africa also saw a 12 per cent increase in daily COVID-19 cases and a 14 per cent increase in deaths. While new cases of COVID-19 in Europe increased by 2 percent but there was no spike in deaths.

Other regions reported a decline in cases, including the eastern Mediterranean region. Although the area saw a 38 percent increase in deaths linked to the previous spike in infections.

Experts fear that Europe is facing another wave of the coronavirus, with cases rising since early March in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands and the UK.
