“We are seeing an increase in the number of people admitted to hospitals, those admitted to intensive care units, especially in Spain, France, Montenegro, Ukraine and some states in the United States. This is concerning because the flu season has not yet started. “, said.
In several countries, the number of people admitted to the hospital between the ages of 15 and 49 infected with COVID-19 is increasing, Van Kerch added. Mike Ryan, director of the World Health Organization’s emergency program, advised people at high risk of becoming infected with COVID-19 to get a flu shot.
