Original title: Myanmar’s new crown epidemic continues to worsen and floods in many places have trapped epidemic prevention work
The Ministry of Health and Sports of Myanmar announced on the evening of July 28 that among the 13,763 samples tested that day, 4,980 confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia were found, with a diagnosis rate of 36%, and a total of 284,099 confirmed cases; 365 new deaths were added that day. A total of 8210 cases.
Recently, the health department of Myanmar is controlling the epidemic by increasing the supply of drugs and oxygen and expanding vaccinations. However, the continuous rainfall in the past few days has caused many epidemic prevention and isolation treatment centers to be besieged by floods. A large number of patients were forced to move, which greatly affected the epidemic prevention work. At the same time, due to the severity of the epidemic, a large number of patients died.
According to Myanmar media reports, on July 1, the average number of people cremated by funeral and interment institutions in Yangon was more than 100. Beginning on July 11, the average daily cremation number reached about 500 people. As a result, a large number of remains could only be queued for cremation, and the staff faced unprecedented pressure. Since mid-July, the number of confirmed deaths in Yangon has been on the rise. In order to relieve the pressure on funeral and interment institutions, municipal departments and public welfare organizations have transported the remains of the deceased three times a day.
