According to statistics from Johns Hopkins University in the United States, as of 6:20 on June 20, Beijing time, the cumulative number of COVID-19 infections in the United States reached 86,246,101, and the cumulative number of deaths reached 1,013,413.
According to US media reports, the Omicron BA.4 and BA.5 mutant strains spread very quickly in the United States. In just 35 days, the proportion of infections soared 21 times. Rockefeller University virologist Paul Bieniasz warned that millions of Americans are likely to be reinfected in the future.
In Europe, the Omicron BA.4 and BA.5 variants have led to a surge in hospitalizations in Europe. The British "Financial Times" reported on June 17 that as immunity levels declined and epidemic restrictions were lifted, the highly contagious new coronavirus variant Omicron subtype caused a surge in the number of hospitalizations for the new coronavirus in European countries. It may trigger a new round of global epidemic.

Omicron BA.4 and BA.5 have become the most mainstream mutant strains in the country, and the positive detection rate was once as high as 50.63%. The number of COVID-19 hospitalizations in Portugal is increasing significantly, almost It is equivalent to the peak of the wave in January this year. Statistics from the University of Lisbon Pandemic Surveillance Working Group indicate that the peak hospitalization rate in Portuguese wards and Intensive Care Units (ICU) will last until the end of June this year. Additionally, hospitalizations are increasing in some countries, including France and the United Kingdom. In Germany, the number of COVID-19 hospitalizations has been rising for more than a week, and the proportion of infections caused by the BA.5 variant doubled at the end of last month.
Piotr Kramarz, head of the surveillance department of the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control, said that Omicron subtypes such as BA.4 and BA.5 have the ability to "immune escape" - neither previous infection nor vaccines can provide strong protection - This will push them to replace previously widespread variants.
