(Sydney Comprehensive Electric) Australian cumulative crown disease is diagnosed.From 1 million on Monday, more than half of them were diagnosed in the past week.Australian Prime Minister Morrison pointed out that the new variant of the strain Omikon changed the spread of crown disease; but he said that Australia could not go back to block the epidemic prevention and must "survive" this wave of epidemic.
Australia added more than 67,000 crown disease confirmed cases on Monday, and the accumulated confirmed cases increased to about 1.04 million.Local health officials pointed out that because some states have not calculated the number of home test results, the actual number of infections may be higher than the official data.
Australia added 20 new deaths on Monday, and 18 people in New South Wales died of the most populous population, and once again refresh the state's highest single -day death record.On Monday, a new deceased included a 3 -year -old child, who suffered from rare genetic diseases, and was the youngest death patient in NSW.
Morrison described at a press conference in Canberra on Monday: "Omikon is a shift, we must support it. There are only two options here: you can support it or implement the blockade.Choose the former. "
As of Monday, 5097 patients in Australia were hospitalized, of which 78 people needed to use ventilator.Morrison pointed out that the Australian health system can still cope with the current epidemic, "the pressure faced by the hospital system is mainly related to the problem of manpower."
As the number of infections surges, there are more and more people who need to be isolated due to confirmation or contact with the diagnostic, which leads to a shortage of manpower in many industries.In order to alleviate the impact of the epidemic on labor, Australia revised the isolation guidance, and people who work in the fields of key supply chains, emergency services and food processing, production and distribution are asymptomatic after contacting the diagnostic.
92%of people over the age of 16 in Australia have completed two doses of coronary vaccine.The country began to vaccinate more than 2.3 million children in the country on Monday on Monday, but due to the shortage of vaccine supply, some general doctors were forced to cancel children's inoculation appointments on the day.
In New Zealand, Australia, Omikon has not yet caused an outbreak, but the experts from the University of Otago and Michaelbaker warned that Omikon is expected to countDuring the week, the New Zealand community was infiltrated, and the government did not make a preparation for preventing a new wave of epidemic from crushing the medical system.
Wilson pointed out that although the vaccination rate of crown vaccines in New Zealand is very high, children aged 5 to 11 have not yet started vaccination, and there are very few adults in vaccination.In addition, Omir Rong's latent period is short, which means that New Zealand's traffic light system used to detect and control community cases will not play a great role.
In December last year, New Zealand replaced the epidemic prevention and alert level system with the red and green light system. One of the differences between the two is that the new system gives the vaccination more freedom, so that they can enter the bar and restaurants by virtue of the vaccination certificate.Waiting for places.
Baker said: "The traffic light system does not help us, because it aims to encourage people to vaccine, rather than curb virus transmission." He called on the authorities to quickly revise and restore the implementation of epidemic prevention and alert level systems.
Beck believes that before these problems are resolved, New Zealand should strengthen border control and restrict the number of New Zealand citizens who enter the country.In the past weekend, New Zealand's control and isolation facilities used to isolate entry passengers have been diagnosed with 64 crown diseases. It is expected that most cases are infected with Omikon poison strains.
