Despite efforts to vaccinate Covid-19 in many places, India and most of the world still suffer heavy losses from the pandemic.
According to the data of New York Times , by the end of April 26, the number of Covid-19 cases in the past week in the world reached 774.404. Compared to two weeks ago, the number of people infected with nCoV increased 15%, higher than the record global average in January (740,390).
The world has exceeded 147 million Covid-19 patients, of which more than 3.11 million people died. The report also found that more than a billion doses of the vaccine have been injected globally. Sheet New York Times “Even though one billion doses of vaccine have been injected, Covid-19 has spread to almost every country in the world”. Because the number of one billion doses is not enough compared to estimated nearly 8 billion people in the world. According to the data of Our World in Data (Oxford University, UK), 82% of the dose of vaccine administered is in high-income and middle-income countries. Only 0.2% of the dose is allocated to low-income countries. “Fire pan” Covid-19 in India Data of New York Times This shows that India is the country with the number of Covid-19 cases accounting for only one third of the world. On average, this country has an additional 260,000 people infected with nCoV every day. The unusual increase in India is attributed to the double mutation. More than 2,000 people die from Covid-19 every day, bringing the total number of fatal illnesses to over 200,000. Experts say these numbers could in fact be more and more terrible. The luxury thing for India right now is oxygen, oxygen tanks. Thousands of patients died on the way to the hospital or lack of oxygen to breathe, the medical facilities were overwhelmed, the crematorium was burning everywhere. The Indian Serum Institute is the largest producer of vaccines in the world, but the proportion of people in the country vaccinated against Covid-19 is surprisingly low. Approximately 8.6% of the population received at least one dose of Covid-19 vaccine. Health experts are concerned that transforming the COV strain in India could create a “domino storm” for other countries around the globe. The double mutation was more contagious, while the vigilance in many places began to let the guard down. Another hot spot in Asia is the Philippines. After Indonesia, the Philippines became the second country in Southeast Asia to have the number of Covid-19 cases exceeding the one million mark. According to the AP The Philippines’ Ministry of Health recorded 8,929 new cases on April 26, bringing the country’s total number of cases to 1,006,428, including 16,853 deaths. Philippine health officials are looking at the possibility of prolonging the blockade in the Manila metropolitan area. A Covid-19 patient awaits admission to hospital in South Delhi, India.

It is the country with the fastest immunization rates and speeds in the world. Israel is also expected to be the first country globally to achieve public immunity. In the UK, where the virus strain B.1.1.7 was found, nearly two-thirds of people 18 years of age and older were vaccinated against at least one dose of Covid-19 vaccine. Compared to its population size, the UK is the country with the lowest proportion of people with Covid-19 in Europe. In the US, the country’s officials have just confirmed that they will aid India with the Covid-19 vaccine, after the tragedy that this place is suffering. According to the Guardian, The US will share 60 million doses of AstraZeneca’s vaccine because it has enough demand for the people. Professor Barry Bloom, former rector of the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health, said: “India has been caught off guard when the number of Covid-19 cases has decreased and they subjectively believe that the epidemic is over. The US and other countries should learn from this when deciding on all policies during a pandemic. Dr. Robert Murphy, Executive Director of the Institute of Global Health, Northwestern University, believes that the United States has a great responsibility for sending unused vaccines to other countries. “We have to think globally and how we can help other countries. If not, we will never be able to put out the whole fire. ” The number of new US nCoV infections every day in the US is falling sharply, but still at an alarming rate. Experts found this trend to be similar to last year when the US seemed to have suppressed the translation, when it suddenly spiked the number of cases again.

Last week, scientists at Texas A&M University (USA) also discovered 3 new virus strains: BV-1, BV-2, and BV-3, analyzed from samples of students and lecturers in the school. . In particular, strain BV-3 is a mixture of more than one strain of SARS-CoV-2. Experts are still not clear about their virulence, but they fear this will be the cause of the upcoming outbreaks. The proportion of new cases of SARS-CoV-2 in most South American countries is high. In Brazil, the number of new patients has begun to decline but remains at an alarming rate, especially since the country has not been able to control the processing of the highly contagious strain P.1. By the morning of April 27, Brazil had recorded more than 14.3 million people suffering from Covid-19, nearly 391,000 deaths. In Europe, the vaccination rate is slower than that of the US and Canada, the number of nCoV infections is still especially high in France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden … In particular, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has just issued an injunction. spread across the country from the evening of April 29 to the end of May 17 in order to limit the spread of Covid-19. Turkey has recorded a sharp decrease in the number of new daily nCoV infections from 63,000 (recorded on April 16) to below 39,000 (statistic on April 25). However, the daily number of deaths from Covid-19 has remained above 300 people in the past week. In addition, on the evening of April 26, the European Union (EU) announced a lawsuit against vaccine pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca because it said that the company did not keep the vaccine supply agreement. According to the Bloomberg, AstraZeneca recently delivered 25% of the Covid-19 vaccine that the EU is expected to receive by the first quarter of 2021. At the same time, the company also plans to provide the EU with about 70 million doses in the second quarter, compared with 180 million. expected in the contract, according to the statement dated 12/3.
