COVID-19 Cases caused by infectious Omicron variants are growing at the rate of 1.6 million cases per day and that rate is trending upward.

According to global data and widespread reports, more and more people are being reinfected by what is known as the BA.5 variant of SARS-COV-2.

The World Health Organization this week has warned of “Rapidly escalating COVID-19 cases amid reduced virus surveillance forecasts and a challenging autumn and winter in the WHO European Region lie ahead.”

“With rising cases, we’re also seeing a rise in hospitalizations, which are only set to increase further in the autumn and winter months as schools reopen, people return from holidays and social mixing moves indoors with the onset of colder weather. This forecast presents a huge challenge to the health workforce in country after country, already under enormous pressure from dealing with unrelenting crises since 2020,” continues the WHO statement.
