Concerns rise in China due to spurt in Covid cases; Speculations of third wave abound |Oneindia News
An uptick in China’s Covid-19 infections and concerns about new variant EG.5 have led to speculation about whether the country is experiencing a "third wave" of coronavirus cases, but public health data suggests the risk of severe illness and death remains low.
According to the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the infection rate steadily declined from the end of May, hitting a low of 12% in mid-July, but then saw a slight rebound, reaching 13.4% by the end of the month.
