Dr. Supakit Sirilak, Director-General of the Department of Medical Sciences Disclosure of the results of the surveillance of the species epidemic “Covid 19” In Thailand, it was found from random sampling of the species. found now an outbreak of a species “Omicron” B.1.1.529, which has two main outbreaks, BA.1 and BA.2. Data from the colonial random checks of 5-11 March from 1961 samples from both foreign travelers. and domestic infections found to be a strain of infection “Omicron” Of the 79 cases, of which 610 were subspecies BA.1 and 1,279 cases were subspecies BA.2, it can be concluded that the proportion of infestation was mostly subspecies BA.2, accounting for 67.6%.
There is news in a group of scientists who are monitoring the mutation of “Omikon” Three BA.2 subspecies have been identified as BA.2 .1. “BA.2.2” and BA.2 .3, which at the moment each of the 3 subspecies have no clear data. Only the detections were reported in Hong Kong, so we had to wait for more information before being identified. including various changes from the mutation of these species. The ones that are under special surveillance and monitoring in Hong Kong are the species. “BA.2.2” with information found to be sick And deaths have increased from an average of 50,000 infections per day to 250,000 per day, but it is too early to draw any conclusions about the severity of the species.
Dr. Supakit continued that the part of Thailand in surveillance “Omicron” Different species are monitored separately and monitored for information. found that the sample group was infected with the strain BA.2.2 4 cases, 1 foreigner and 3 Thai nationals, all of whom have mild symptoms and are now cured.
However, it is not yet possible to determine the exact information, we will have to wait for the results from GESES first. Now the Department of Science is still monitoring the species. for subspecies “BA.2.2” There is no need for every individual species to be isolated. But when there is a specification that changes to the epidemic or the severity of the disease More specific strains will be screened for planning to control the outbreak.
