… the situation in Myanmar Yesterday there was an additional 363 deaths, 12 more deaths, now a total of 139,515, 3,115 deaths, now 2.2% death rate …
Analyze the overall picture of the global outbreak …
Compared to mid-2020, it was three times the number of average number of infections per day and twice the average number of serious and critical cases per day, with 3 times more average number of deaths per day. As much
The number of infections Number of severe cases and crises And the number of deaths each day is increasing. Which was found to be faster and clear since November 2020 onwards
Noteworthy is The increasing number of severe cases and crises are in proportion to the increased number of deaths. Relevant factors would not be the only number of infections that increased. May be related to the variation of the species of the outbreak. Which if determined according to the time period It was during the outbreak of new species. As previously known
Therefore, we can understand the concern of international medical community following the results of different vaccines. That it will still work with new strains such as the UK, South Africa, etc.
With current information The vaccine appears to be working for the UK strains that are now spreading out across the world. But with the South African species Seems to be somewhat less effective. But more studies are still needed.
The third phase of another vaccine was recently published, the American company Johnson & Johnson.
Adenovirus vector vaccine, similar to Astrazeneca / Oxford.
Which is the vaccine used Adenovirus-26 It carries the part of the gene that determines the protein thorn part of the COVID-19 virus. To stimulate the body to build immunity in the blood Or antibodies, while Astrazeneca / Oxford’s uses Chimpanzee Adenovirus
Johnson & Johnson conducted 43,783 volunteers in the United States, Latin America and South Africa.
The results showed that 66% of infections with moderate to severe symptoms were assessed at 28 days after vaccination. (Overview of all research countries), 72% in America, 66% in Latin America and 57% in South Africa.
However, if analyzing only severe illness Will be able to block 85%
The good thing about Johnson & Johnson vaccines is that it’s a single dose. And the storage of vaccines can be stored in a normal refrigerator. Unlike mRNA vaccines that must be stored at very cold temperatures, this can be a practical problem in countries without adequate cold chain systems.
Johnson & Johnson is expected to complete its filing for approval with the relevant authorities in February.
Considering the use of vaccines to prevent various diseases, the principle of deciding whether to inject anything or not Need to consider the necessity Detailed information pertaining to that vaccine study Properties of prevention, injection method, number of times, time to injections Including any side effects or adverse reactions that may occur.
People should inquire about medical personnel thoroughly. And need to tell in detail about the underlying disease that you have And a history of drug allergies, food allergies or various allergic reactions In the past that used to be Will help each other be careful And make the right decisions You should wait at least 30 minutes after vaccination.
We must strictly protect ourselves and our family members. Do not let infection
With love to everyone
