In China, 800 million people may get corona infected in the next few months. Airfinity, a London-based global health intelligence company, said that there could be 2.1 million deaths after the end of the zero covid policy in China. Airfinity attributed this to low vaccination and a lack of antibodies in China.
The situation of infection in China is reminiscent of 2020. All the beds in the hospitals are full. Medicines are running out in medical stores. Patients can be seen begging in front of the doctor for treatment. When the children are having fever, the mothers are trying to bring them down with potatoes.
Funerals are being held 24 hours a day in Beijing's largest crematorium. Mass funerals have started and their pictures are also coming. However, the official figures of deaths from Corona are being told only 5-10 daily. Experts claim that the actual figure is much higher.
A new variant BA.5.2.1.7 i.e. BF.7 has also been found. According to experts, this is the most dangerous mutation of Omicron. One patient is infecting 18 people.
35 lakh corona cases came in the world in 7 days
According to the data of Worldometers.info, 34 lakh 84 thousand cases of corona have been reported in the world in a week. There 9 thousand 928 people have died. 15 thousand 548 cases and 7 deaths have been reported in China in 7 days. However, experts suspect that the true figure is being hidden. The number of patients can be many times more.
Japan, South Korea, and France have the highest number of cases in a week. The number of patients in these countries is 10 lakh 65 thousand, 4 lakh 61 thousand, and 3 lakh 58 thousand. In India, 1,081 cases have been reported in 7 days.
New variant BF.7, spreading from 1 to 18 people… know how dangerous it is in 3 points
1. BF.7 is the most powerful variant of Omicron
Health experts say that the BF.7 spreading in China is the most powerful variant of Omicron. It is making sick people who have been infected before, fully vaccinated people, or both. It transfers quickly and the symptoms also appear sooner than the old corona variants.
2. One patient capable of infecting 18 people
The reproduction number (RO) of BF.7 is 10-18.6. This means that a patient getting infected by it is capable of infecting an average of 10 to 18.6 people at a time. The average RO of the Omicron variant is generally found to be 5.08. Perhaps this is the reason why corona cases in China are doubling not in days, but in hours.
3. Deadly for those with weak immunity
Symptoms of BF.7 include cold-, cough, fever, sore throat, flushing, vomiting, and diarrhea. It can prove fatal for patients with weak immunity. Since strict restrictions were being followed in China, people could not develop immunity against the virus.
3 warnings of health experts for China...
1. Corona's peak will come in April
America's Institute of Health Matrix and Evaluation (IHMI) has said in a recent report that the peak of corona will come in China in early April. By that time the number of deaths is expected to reach 3 lakh 22 thousand. At the same time, American scientist Eric Feigel-Ding warned that in 90 days 60% of China's population i.e. about 800 million people will be infected with Corona.
2. There will be 3 waves in the next 3 months
According to experts, there will be 3 waves of corona in the next 3 months. According to epidemiologist Wu Junyu, the first of three possible waves is currently underway in China. After this, the second wave will come in the middle of January. At present, a week-long Lunar Year celebration goes on in the country, due to which lakhs of people come and go to the country. In such a situation, there may be an increase in the number of patients. The third wave may come between the end of February and March. At this time all the people return considering their holidays. In such a situation, more people can report the infection.
3. 10% of elderly vaccinated, they are more at risk
Dr. Ramshankar Upadhyay, Professor and International Health Advisor at Harvard Medical School, told in a conversation with Dainik Bhaskar that till now only 38% of vaccination has been done in China. It is only 10% of people over the age of 65. Due to the zero covid policy, even the immune system could not develop in people to fight against corona. In such a situation, due to people coming out together, there was bound to be a corona explosion there. Although China claims that 90% of its population is fully vaccinated.
