Corona Virus
International News: After the horrific phase of Corona epidemic worldwide, the Corona virus has once again spread its feet in Hong Kong and Singapore in Asia. In both places, the new cases of Covid-19 are seeing a rapid growth, which has increased the concern of local health departments. Especially in these densely populated cities, the speed of infection is putting pressure on health systems.
Dr. Albert Au, head of the Communicable Disease Branch of Hong Kong's Health Protection Center, said that the percentage of positive cases of Covid-19 is now the highest compared to the last one year. 31 serious cases were registered here in the week till 3 May, which is the highest in the last one year. This increase is also a sign of severity of infection and increase in deaths.
Although the number of hospitalized patients is less than the previous waves, but still about 7 million people have undergone treatment in hospitals due to diseases related to Kovid-19. Health officials are monitoring the infection and urging to take precautions from the increasing data of infected.
There has also been a huge jump in the rate of infection in Singapore. According to the Ministry of Health, the Kovid-19 cases in the week till May 3 have increased by 28% compared to the previous week, and the total number has reached around 14,200. For this reason, the Singapore government has increased vigilance by issuing high alert and requested the public to strictly follow measures to stop infection.
This sharp increase of Covid-19 cases in Hong Kong and Singapore has also led to the possibility of a possible new wave of virus in other countries of Asia. Experts say that at this time it is necessary to adopt the measures such as social distance, use of masks and vaccinations to prevent the prevention and spread of infection at this time, so that there is no major outbreak of epidemic.
