Yesterday, 451,493 more people were infected worldwide, 1,186 more deaths, bringing the total to 504,655,744, with 6,222,757 deaths.
The top five with the most infections were South Korea, France, Italy, Japan and Australia.
Yesterday, the number of new infections was 9 of the top 10 countries from Europe and Asia and 16 of the top 20 in the world.
The number of new infections every day in the world now. from Asia and Europe Together they accounted for 88.17% of the world’s population, while the number of deaths accounted for 87.94%.
New infections in Asia accounted for 44.54% of the world, while the number of deaths rose to 45.69%.
…The epidemic situation of Thailand
Yesterday, the number of new infections, including ATK, was the 6th highest in the world and 3rd in Asia.
While the number of deaths yesterday 3rd highest in the world
Thailand’s death toll yesterday accounted for 23.61% of all reported deaths in Asia.
…Compare weekly statistics
Globally, the number of new infections decreased by 25% and deaths decreased by 23%.
If you only look at the continent of Asia It found that the number of new infections dropped by 28% and deaths decreased by 23%, equal to the global average.
But for Thailand, we The number of new infections dropped by 11% (less than the Asian and global averages), and the number of deaths continued to rise by 19% over the previous week.
The above information reflects that The outbreak in Thailand is still severe compared to the overall picture of Asia and the world. The official figure also does not include the number of ATK tests, while the number of deaths has clearly risen against the global trend.
Previous disease prevention policies and measures have not been effective enough. And it needs to be reviewed…if you see the value of life…
…Update on Long COVID
Recently, Chen C and his team from the United States A systematic global review of academic data until March 13, 2022 was conducted and a meta-analysis was performed. To see the incidence of Long COVID or Post COVID conditions in people infected with COVID-19.
Published in the International Medical Journal of Infectious Diseases Journal of Infectious Diseases on April 16, 2022.
50 studies were reviewed and 41 were used for meta-analysis.
The results showed that Globally, on average, 43% of people infected with COVID-19 experience Long COVID-19 (39%-46% confidence interval).
However, people who are infected and become ill and need to be hospitalized are 54% more likely to have long-term COVID problems (44%-63% confidence interval), which is considered a higher risk than those who are infected without hospitalization. Nurses found to have Long COVID problems 34% (25%-46% confidence interval)
If comparing between continents, it can be seen that Asia has the highest number of cases of COVID-19. The highest facing long COVID cases was 51% (37%-65% confidence interval).
Approximately 44% in Europe (32%-56% confidence interval) and North America 31% (21%-43% confidence interval).
Thus, it reflects us that the long-term impact of Long COVID is more common than anticipated. It will undermine the performance of daily life, relationships and work, and incur a costly burden on patients, families and the country in the long run.
Infected so it doesn’t end with just recovering or dying, but there will be Long COVID as the 3th route, which is a rough and long road.
Please don’t be fooled by lies, illusions, that it’s lame, it’s just a common cold, take it and it’ll disappear in no time. At a glance, it’s local…because in the end, the culprit is the person who believes and acts good, doesn’t protect it, while the scammers float away, don’t care, and don’t take responsibility.
Living life, earning a living, or studying is…it can be done for sure…but you have to be mindful. Optimize processes to be safe, avoid risky activities risky behavior and risk locations and prevent routine examples
It’s best not to be infected.
Always wear a mask…this is the heart of the matter. Because it is the last line of defense for each person.
