XBB.1.5
has become the most popular strain in the United States. Netizens paid attention to
related topics and rushed to the hot search
Shanghai has detected XBB.1.5
Recently, the Global Initiative for Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID) database added 369 Chinese local new coronavirus sequencing results. These samples came from COVID-19 patients in Shanghai and were randomly collected from November 23 to December 22 this year. The BQ.1 family and the XBB family, which are widely popular in Europe and the United States, account for more than 1/3 - the vast majority of these cases are imported cases from abroad and are under closed-loop independent management. Therefore, they have not caused large-scale local spread of the BQ.1 family and the XBB family.
It is worth noting that among the 25 cases of XBB families monitored in Shanghai this time, 3 cases of XBB.1.5 were also imported cases from abroad and did not cause local transmission of .
Omicron new variant XBB.1.5
has become the most popular strain in the United States
According to reports, due to its extremely high "immune escape" ability,
Barbara, director of the Respiratory Viruses Division at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said there is no indication that XBB.1.5 will cause more severe disease than other Omicron variants. Although COVID-19 hospitalization rates are generally rising across the United States, hospitalization rates in the Northeast region of the United States have not increased.
Li Tong, chief physician of the Department of Respiratory and Infectious Diseases at Beijing You'an Hospital, once told reporters, "XBB still belongs to a sub-branch of Omicron and is a recombinant variant of the variant strain below BA.2. Its immune evasion ability has been enhanced . Its prevalence in some foreign areas has led to an increase in the number of infections, but foreign data shows that the pathogenicity of is no different from the previous strains ."
Will the risk of secondary infection with increase with the new strain ?
According to CCTV website news, experts say that XBB may spread faster. The pathogenicity of XBB, BQ.1, and BQ.1.1 is similar to that of previous strains, but their immune evasion ability has increased. Therefore, the virus caused by may spread faster than before.
"The immune evasion ability of the current XBB strain has been enhanced, which is different from the BA.5 popular in my country. After a period of time after infection with BA.5, the level of protection decreases. When encountering strains with strong immune evasion ability, the risk of reinfection will increase. However, reinfection mainly occurs in some people with low immunity. The risk of reinfection in a short period of time is relatively small for people with normal immune function , and the symptoms after infection are usually milder than the first time." Li Tong once said.
The new strain XBB1.5
has attracted attention. At the same time,
montmorillonite powder, norfloxacin and other drugs
once rushed to the hot search.

Is it necessary to stock up on montmorillonite powder?
Recently, a screenshot of "XBB1.5 strain has reached the top in the United States. This strain mainly attacks the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular and stomach. It is recommended to prepare montmorillonite powder." Then "montmorillonite powder" became a hot search.
Li Dong once told reporters: Montmorillonite powder is a drug for treating diarrhea. Some people infected with the new coronavirus do have symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea, which usually resolve on their own in 1 to 3 days. It has not been found that XBB1.5 is more likely to invade the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems and digestive systems. Drugs for treating respiratory tract infections and digestive tract infections can be prepared appropriately, but there is no need to hoard a large amount of .
18-year-old patients are prohibited from taking norfloxacin
Norfloxacin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic. After people take it, it can hinder the action of DNA gyrase of pathogenic bacteria in the human digestive tract, hinder the replication of bacterial DNA, and thus inhibit the bacteria. It is often used for diarrhea caused by bacteria, such as enteritis and dysentery, but is ineffective against diarrhea caused by viruses. Because acute diarrhea is often caused by viral infection, when symptoms of diarrhea occur, you must find out the cause and then take the corresponding medicine. Do not take this medicine indiscriminately.
The State Food and Drug Administration reminds that children are not smaller versions of adults because their liver, kidneys and other important organ functions are still developing and have not fully matured. Therefore, when taking medications, adult medications cannot be taken in "half the amount for children." After adults take medication, many pharmaceutical ingredients cannot easily pass through the blood-brain barrier and harm the brain. However, the blood-brain barrier function of children has not yet fully developed. Some pharmaceutical ingredients will pass through the blood-brain barrier and cause damage to the child's brain. Children's tolerance and response to drugs are different from those of adults. Drugs that can be used by adults may be contraindicated or used with caution in children. Quinolone antibacterial drugs, norfloxacin and other floxacin drugs may inhibit cartilage development and are prohibited for minors under 18 years of age.
