Just because many people seem more than ready to put the COVID-19 pandemic behind us doesn't mean it's really over. Experts address the troubling signs that we're not out of the pandemic yet.
The daily average of hospitalizations has reached 3,000, an increase of 19% over last week, and daily deaths are hovering at 275.
Because BA.4 and BA.5’s daily growth advantage over Omicron strain BA.2 in Portugal is similar to what was previously reported in South Africa , European officials predict BA.5 will be Portugal’s dominant variant in the coming days.rate is due to the variants’ “ability to evade immune protection induced by prior infection and/or vaccination, particularly if this has waned over time.”
It remains to be seen whether BA.4/BA.5 can outcompete BA.2.12.1, which is nearly dominant in the U.S., says Eric Topol, MD, a practicing cardiologist at Scripps in La Jolla, CA, and Medscape editor-in-chief.
