China has warned that Corona instances could rise again this month, claims report

Although there haven't been many coronavirus cases in China since the New Year, the Chinese government has issued a warning that this month may see an upsurge in coronavirus infections. This is the assertion stated in the report by China's official media.

There are currently fewer fever patients in Chinese hospitals, according to Mi Feng, a spokesman for the country's National Health Commission, but the risk of respiratory illnesses like COVID-19 and influenza still exists. According to experts, there may be a rise in COVID-19 instances and other respiratory illnesses like the influenza virus due to China's extreme weather. According to the Chinese authorities, the influenza season begins in October. The number of influenza cases in the southern provinces of the nation has increased by 36.8%. In the northern states, instances have surged by 57% concurrently. According to the Chinese authorities, people who contracted the influenza A virus also frequently contracted the influenza B virus. This means that their immunity was weakened by influenza infection. In such a situation, there is a possibility that people with weak immunity may also become victims of corona infection.

According to the Indian SARS-CoV-2 Genomics Consortium (INSACOG), 1200 cases of the novel Corona subvariant JN.1 have been detected in India as of this past Saturday. JN.1 cases have also been discovered in Nagaland. JN.1 cases have been discovered so far in 17 Indian states and union territories. In response to the unexpected spike in coronavirus cases over the past several weeks, the Health Ministry has also issued an advisory and advised the public to keep their distance from one another and use masks in public areas.

With 215 instances, Karnataka has the most JN.1 cases on record. After this, the highest number of cases of new sub-variant of Corona have been found in Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and Kerala, West Bengal, Goa, Tamil Nadu and Gujarat.
