According to the Yangcheng Evening News, recently, many netizens said that they were "positive" again in the dog days of summer. The reporter learned from the Guangdong Provincial Disease Prevention and Control Bureau that the number of new coronavirus infections in Guangdong Province was 8,246 in June and 18,384 in July, an increase of more than 10,000 cases. The number of infected cases has increased, and at the same time, the proportion of XDV series variants has increased. However, both respiratory disease epidemiological warning experts and clinical experts told reporters that this is a normal peak of new coronavirus infection, and citizens do not need to be nervous and worried. The new coronavirus is weak in virulence, and the cases are sporadic, without obvious family clustering, which also shows that the virus is less contagious.
