In response to the Global Epidemic | in response to Aumicron, many European countries have promoted child vaccination

With more than 30 mutant amino acids on key proteins, the new coronavirus variant "Omikeron" was quickly designated by WHO as a "variant of concern" (VOC) once it was reported.

The WHO said that Omikerong may be spreading to most countries and regions at an "unprecedented" rate, and the strain may weaken the effectiveness of the vaccine. Gavi, the chief executive of the Vaccine Alliance, said Omicron could exacerbate the uneven distribution of COVID-19 vaccines.

Up to now, a total of 4 cases of Infection with the Omilkejun strain have been reported in Taiwan; the number of cases of infection with the Omiljun strain in Russia has increased to 25; the first case of infection with the Omiljun strain has been detected outside the airport quarantine in Tokyo, Japan; and the first case of infection with the Omiljun strain has been found in Indonesia. In addition, in response to the arrival of the Aumicron strain, many European countries began to vaccinate children aged 5 to 11 years old, including Germany, Spain, Hungary, Greece and Croatia.

WHO: The Omikejung strain may weaken the effectiveness of the vaccine

The World Health Organization said on the 15th that preliminary evidence shows that the mutated new coronavirus Olmikharong strain may weaken the effectiveness of the new crown vaccine, and people are at higher risk of repeated infection with this strain.

Preliminary data suggest that the Aumechjung strain may make the COVID-19 vaccine less effective in preventing infection and transmission. At the same time, people are at increased risk of repeated infection with the strain.

According to WHO, it is not yet possible to determine the extent to which the Aumecreon strain evades immunity, nor is it clear how protective existing vaccines are to prevent the development of severe illness and death in people infected with Ami kerong, and more data are needed to be further understood.
