New Kovid -19 waves spread in Asia as infections in Hong Kong, Singapore
There has been a significant increase in the number of cases of Covid-19 in South-East Asia’s largest cities, Hong Kong and Singapore, in which experts express concern.

Health officials are concerned in densely populated Southeast Asia as a new wave of Covid-19 infections is being predicted due to the number of cases. According to news reports, resurgence has been indicated in Hong Kong and parts of Singapore.

He said that the percentage of testing of positive testing for Covid-19 is one year high. Data from the Center suggests that the increase in severe cases including deaths reaches their highest point in about a year, reporting 31 in the week ending May 31.

While factors such as reducing population immunity can also be a contribution factor for increase, the Ministry of Health of Singapore said that at present “there is no indication that the circulating variants are more broadcast – or cause more serious cases – during the epidemic.”
