endemic 結果共8筆

Taiwan has received 462,800 doses of Novavax’s XBB vaccine, with distribution starting on January 9, 2023, according to the Taiwan Centers for Diseases Control (CDC). In May of this year, Taiwan categorized Covid-19 as a class 4 endemic disease, similar to seasonal flu. The decision was based on clinical trial reports and immunization recommendations from the U.S., the European Union (EU), and the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) of the Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW). Unvaccinated individuals are advised to receive two doses of 0.5mL each, administered at least four weeks apart. Those who have already received a COVID-19 vaccine should receive a single dose of 0.5mL, provided at least three months have passed since their last dose. The domestically available XBB vaccine includes those produced by Moderna and Novavax, and recipients can choose either brand for vaccination.

南韓自2020年的1月20日，境內發現首例新冠確診者至今，累計病例突破3135萬，相當於全韓有六成人口曾經染疫；隨著世界衛生組織(WHO)解除全球公衛緊急狀態，南韓也跟進日本，拍板解除大部分防疫措施！包含確診不再需要強制隔離，除了有病房的醫療機構之外，其他場所全面取消口罩令。南韓總統尹錫悅今天(5/11)早上親自宣布「時隔三年四個月找回疫前生活」，意味著新冠大流行終結。南韓「報復性旅遊潮」如今也越演越烈，機票價格持續走高，已經漲到疫情前的兩倍之多。

南韓疫情明顯趨緩，時隔48天，單日新增確診數終於降至10萬例以下，南韓當局醞釀「解封」，不斷預告將大幅鬆綁防疫措施，為了迎接「後Omicron時代」，現在還要加速將新冠病患收治，納入普通醫療體系，大力推動「日常社區診療」。上周末，首爾櫻花全面盛開，汝矣島湧入10萬賞櫻客，南韓民眾迫不及待出門放風，早已沒有防疫緊張氛圍。
