WHO: Global Covid cases up 80% as new subvariant rises - theold - 14-08-2023
The WHO warned that the reported number of cases and deaths do not reflect the true numbers, in part because countries carry out far less testing and monitoring than during earlier stages of the pandemic.
Several countries in the Northern Hemisphere, including the United States, United Kingdom, France and Japan have seen a summer uptick in cases in recent weeks.
The WHO has urged countries to ramp up vaccination efforts.
Pharmaceutical firms Pfizer/BioNTech, Moderna and Novavax are all working on updating their Covid vaccines to target XBB subvariants.

A total of 57,220 cases were recorded for July 26 – the first time in six months that the daily number exceeded 50,000.

There seen to be no group immunity for this virus.
It just mutates and reinfects.
