South Africa faces new COVID surge

Two sub-variants of omicron are spiking the number of COVID cases in South Africa, which had previously been seeing new case numbers in the hundreds.

South Africa in new surge of COVID from versions of omicron

Health experts in South Africa say the country is experiencing a surge of new COVID-19 cases driven by two omicron sub-variants. Professor Marta Nunes, a researcher at Vaccine and Infectious Diseases Analytics at Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital in Soweto said that for about three weeks the country has seen increasing numbers of new cases and somewhat higher hospitalizations, but not increases in severe cases and deaths. South Africa’s new cases have gone from an average of 300 per day in early April to about 8,000 per day this week. Nunes says the actual number of new cases is probably much higher but because the symptoms are mild, many people are not getting tested.
