The new crown pneumonia epidemic continued to spread, with 68,118 new local cases in China yesterday, another 496 new cases of moderately severe cases, and 152 deaths, both hitting new highs. Regarding the decline in the number of new cases in a single day, Minister of Health and Welfare Chen Shizhong said yesterday that the central government estimates that the number of confirmed cases in a single day in China has almost reached a high point. Experts said that at present, the epidemic situation in the north is slowing down, and the epidemic situation in the central and southern regions is heating up. The north can be considered to have “survived.” More than 100 to more than 200 cases.

Kaohsiung’s 9,657 confirmed cases narrow the gap with New Taipei

The number of new local cases added yesterday was less than 10,000 in all counties and cities, with 9,820 cases in New Taipei City, 9,657 cases in Kaohsiung City, 9,511 cases in Taichung City, 6,926 cases in Taoyuan City, 5,631 cases in Tainan City, 5,228 cases in Taipei City, 4475 cases in Changhua County, etc. Among them, the gap between the number of confirmed cases in Kaohsiung City and New Taipei City is even closer.

Regarding the number of newly diagnosed cases in a single day in China, is it possible to exceed the 100,000 estimated peak of the central government? Chen Shizhong said in Changhua yesterday that it has almost reached a high point now. The self-control of the Chinese people is very strong. For example, there was a three-level control last year, but not this year. However, the flow of people this year is only 3/4 of last year’s level three control, and the current epidemic situation is still In the grasp, there is still a lot of work to be done. I hope that the central and local governments will work together to make the epidemic pass as soon as possible.

2 children with severe suspected encephalitis, 1-year-old boy died of epidemic

Yesterday in China, both moderate and severe cases and deaths hit new highs, with 496 new cases of moderate and severe cases, including 341 cases of moderate disease and 155 cases of severe cases, with 152 deaths. Regarding the high number of deaths, Huang Limin, director of National Taiwan University Children’s Hospital, said that since the death will be about 10 to 14 days later than the diagnosis, and Taiwan entered the peak of the epidemic in late May, it is estimated that it will enter the peak in the near future. There will be more than 100 to more than 200 cases. Because the number of confirmed cases does not fluctuate much, the peak of death may not necessarily reach the beginning of 2.

Huang Limin urges children to get 2 doses in 4 weeks

Regarding the frequent occurrence of severe and fatal cases of children in Taiwan, Huang Limin bluntly said that he did not know why the interval between 2 doses of children’s vaccines was extended to 12 weeks during the epidemic. If the epidemic situation is not tense, it is okay to take it slowly, but it is currently in an epidemic period, and children should follow the imitation single, and receive the second dose 4 weeks after vaccination to get complete protection as soon as possible. As for children under the age of 5, Taiwan should review the vaccine as soon as possible after the United States has passed the emergency use authorization (EUA) for the vaccine.
