indicates that ‘endemic diseases’ require 70% injection
Reporters reported that Medical Genome Center Facebook page Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital The post states that vaccination against COVID-19 is required. at least 70% in all populations and in all countries to stop the spread of COVID-19 not to mutate For example, the BA.4 and BA.5 subspecies that the World Health Organization (WHO) have identified originated in countries with low vaccination. And there is a high probability that BA.5 will replace the BA.2 subspecies of Omikron that is currently epidemic.
“At least 70% vaccination is required in all populations and in all countries. To stop the virus from mutating, WHO considers the spread of COVID-19 around the world can now be downgraded to become endemic (Under the control of the public health of each country) by 2022, if equal access to vaccines and antiviral drugs. And most importantly, at least 70% vaccination is required in all populations and in all countries. to stop the virus from mutating
Covid-19 is a global problem. Not in any one country, the 2019 coronavirus will mutate in countries where people have fewer vaccinations. And it only took a few weeks for the outbreak to spread to other countries. Even though the country’s population is >70% vaccinated in all populations. This is because the vaccines we use today are becoming increasingly effective in preventing new mutant infections, such as highly immunostimulating mRNA vaccines. But it can prevent infection from omicron subspecies BA.2 only 50%.
It can be noted that the latest coronavirus 2019 mutation, Omikron subspecies BA.4 and BA.5, originated in countries where people are less vaccinated, such as Geuteng (BA.4) and KwaZulu-Natal (KwaZulu-Natal). BA.5) in South Africa Which has 90 and 100 different mutations from the original Wuhan virus, respectively, which the WHO believes there is a high probability that BA.5 may be a replacement for Omikron. Subspecies BA.2”
