# Is there a “second infection” in large-scale proximity? By [Andrea](https://paragraph.com/@andrea-13) · 2023-05-30 --- Press by the press The “five” holidays that have just taken place have tended to thrive across the country. Despite intensive personnel, there are not many people wearing masks because of the warming of weather. Many fear that such proximity, coupled with the emergence of new toxic strains, will not be repeated? On this issue, the daily reporters of science and technology interviewed relevant experts. Low risk of secondary infection still effective “In terms of monitoring data, there is an increase in the number of cases throughout the country, but there is no large-scale converging epidemic.” On 7 May, the King, Director of the Diseases Control Section, First Hospital, Beijing University, said that he had been interviewed by the daily scientific and technical press. Previously, the data released by the China Center for Disease Prevention and Control showed that 12 indigenous areas, such as XB B.1.16, were newly monitored in the country, focusing on variable strains. In response, Dr. Lee, Director of the Infectious Syndrome, Beijing Hospital, attached to the University of Medical Sciences, the capital, indicated that the XB B.1.16 variable strain was one of the regrouping of toxic strains by the new coroner, Omire, which had a number of variables compared to the previous toxic strains, making it more immune to escape and communicable. The country’s previous monitoring of post-immunization resistance found that the level of resistance would decline three to six months later. However, the last round of epidemics did not allow too many people to be infected with the new coronary virus twice, mainly because of the virulous strains that were infected after vaccination, which would lead to higher levels of physical resistance and longer protection periods. “There is, therefore, that the body resistance is still at a higher level for those infected with the new coroner virus and that the risk of secondary infection is still relatively low.” Lee has said that the risk of secondary infection continues to increase from the old age, the low immunized population, who were previously infected for more than half a year, because the resistance of some of the population is reduced more quickly, particularly in the face of XB B.1.16, a toxic strain that is highly immune to escape. Wang Yingfan also indicated that the risk of secondary infection was relatively low. However, older persons, as well as those with basic diseases, have a weak immunization function and a lower level of resistance, whether in the face of new variable strains or secondary infection risks, all need to be a focus of attention, and such persons should be able to complete vaccinations in order to reduce the incidence of acute infection. Experts have therefore emphasized that, while mobility increases the risk of transmission of the virus, it is more targeted at “unpositive” populations, which are particularly sensitive to protection. Even “second infection” symptoms are lighter At present, according to data on the monitoring of my country’s new coronary strains, cases in the home are still dominated by BA.5.2 and BF.7 and their subdivisions. In dynamic terms, the growth in the XB B and sub-divisions is faster. In the near future, XB B variable strains in imported cases have become an absolute advantage, with XB B variable strains growing significantly in indigenous cases. However, there are no reported increases in hospitalization and death due to infection in XB B.1.16. No increase in the severity of the disease has been reported in comparison with the other branch of Oxfamy. “Although it is reported that XB B.1.16 has resulted in an increase in the incidence of allotitis, it is too early to conclude that some other viruses, such as thyroid, influenza virus, intestinal virus, etc., will give rise to additional cases of allotitis. Lee said. In recent days, a number of people have fought off the masculine, claiming that “sever” still happens with nose, dizziness and tastes, but less than the first symptoms. Lee has thought that, in the next two to three months, there is still a higher risk of infection for those who did not have a “positive” before. As the time of infection extends, the virus is still changing, its ability to escape and its transmission is increasing, while resistance is declining. Therefore, once again, people who have not previously been infected, especially the elderly, and those with basic diseases, are reminded of their personal protection. “In the case of the majority of persons with normal immunization functions, even “second infection” symptoms are less severe and do not occur in a very short period of time, as in the first case. And the subsequent peak of the epidemic will not be as apparent as it was before, and a slower peak may be observed.” Lee stressed. --- *Originally published on [Andrea](https://paragraph.com/@andrea-13/is-there-a-second-infection-in-large-scale-proximity)*
