Because after 3-4 months of primary vaccination, the immunity will be reduced.

This reduces the ability to prevent infection as well.

Especially in the 608 group, including the elderly 60 years and over, people with chronic diseases, 7 disease groups, and pregnant women.

including those who work with patients or people at risk

In the past week, a patient with pneumonia was found.

intubation

and a small increase in deaths

Partly due to the vaccination of more than 140 million doses of the people, thereby increasing immunity and reducing the mortality rate.

The CCA has assigned Bangkok and the Ministry of Public Health to further penetrate other areas.

to find target groups for vaccinating people

to help build immunity

In the case of a gap in the transfer of patients with COVID-19

Especially in Bangkok, Dr. Somsak Ankasil, Director-General of the Medical Department, revealed that the Department of Medical Services has coordinated with the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration and various network agencies, including the network hospitals.

Bangkok, defense, private hospitals, civil society

and related agencies

The Department of Medical Services has extended the care system from the original find-give-end to scan (or call)-give-end.

It is the preparation of a QR code or a phone call to a hospital under the Department of Medical Services.

For the patient with the phone

To increase channels for patients to access treatment without coming to a hospital in a group without symptoms or mild symptoms, such as Rajavithi Hospital, call 0-2206-2900, Rajavithi Hospital 2, call 0-2592-9550 ext. 70019 -20 Monks Hospital Tel. 0-2354-4305 ext. 5314, 5317 Lertsin Hospital Tel. 0-2353-9680, 0-2353-9686, 0-2353-9690 Metta Pracharak Hospital (Wat Rai Khing) Tel. .08-2215-5495,

08-0045-2736 The COVID outbreak is now likely to increase the number of infected people.

Most of them are green syndromes.

Treatment of most patients is therefore a separate form of home quarantine.

Making it still have a bed to support heavy syndrome.

On the same day, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Teera Woratanarat, Faculty of Medicine

Chulalongkorn University

Post on Facebook about the situation of the coronavirus outbreak that the top 5 countries with the most infections in the world are Japan, Australia, Brazil, Italy and the United States.

As for Thailand, the number of deaths on July 18 was the 10th highest in the world and 2nd in Asia for the subspecies of the coronavirus BA.2.75. It was first discovered in India and spread to many countries.

There is information from research by a research team from India that

Much of the subspecies of omikron detected in India is

As a concern, both BA.2.74, BA.2.75, and BA.2.76 were initially assessed.

Tends to be stronger than BA.5

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Teera further stated that

The Japanese Research Council

A published study found that BA.2.75 was characterized by resistance to several therapeutic antibody drugs.

as well as the pre-epidemic subspecies of Omicron.

But some antibody drugs can also be effective in managing infections, such as Regdanvimab, Sotrovimab, Tixagevimab, while Peking University published informal laboratory studies suggest that BA.2.75 is likely to bind to the ACE2 receptor. than BA.4 and BA.5, but in terms of immune resistance

A study looking at immunity from people vaccinated and infected with COVID found that BA.2.75 is more resistant than BA.2.12.1, but may be less than BA.4 and BA.5, except for people who have been previously infected with the Delta strain. BA.2.75 is more resistant than people infected with previously infected Omicron strains BA.1 and BA.2, and Rajnarayanan R from Arkansas State University recently reported an update on the detection of the BA.2 subspecies.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Teera stated that

European Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

It pointed out that the omicron BA.4 and BA.5 in Europe are experiencing a serious outbreak and are leading to a marked increase in hospitalizations at all ages.

In addition, there are patients who are so severe that they go to the ICU and use a ventilator, which is clearly increasing in people aged 40 years and over. For Thailand, you must be careful.

Because the nature of disease is always consistent wherever they are in the world.

And there is a high chance that we will be dealing with outbreaks with different subspecies at the same time.

If not protected

Based on the knowledge I have now, BA.4, BA.5 and BA.2.75 are not shoddy, able to live, earn a living, study.

But you should always protect yourself.
