Why is coronavirus not taken seriously?

First, the toxicity of the new coronavirus has weakened.

It has been nearly three years since the development of the new coronavirus. After three years of development, the new coronavirus has undergone great changes. The new coronavirus currently circulating around the world is different from the one that just emerged. Things are very different back then. Although the new coronavirus is more contagious now, its toxicity has been significantly weakened, and the severity and fatality rates have dropped significantly.

This is estimated to be an important prerequisite for many countries around the world to liberalize.

Second, the vaccination rate is relatively high.

Starting in 2021, many countries are vigorously popularizing vaccines. After nearly a year of popularization, the current vaccination rate in many countries has basically reached more than 80, and some countries have even reached more than 90. After being vaccinated, the probability of being infected with the new coronavirus will be reduced. Even if you are infected, the rate of severe illness will be significantly reduced, and most of them will be mild and asymptomatic infections.

Third, the population is small.

There are many countries in the world with a population of less than 50 million. For these countries, even if they are relaxed, the number of infected people and deaths will not be too many, so they do not have much risk. pressure.

Fourth, medical resources are relatively sufficient.

At present, the countries that are really liberalizing are mainly some European and American countries. For these European and American countries, they have small populations, coupled with developed economies and relatively complete medical resources, they can cope with the possible consequences of liberalization. of new cases and severe cases, there is no need to worry about medical resources being overwhelmed.

Fifth, there are many infected people.

After nearly three years of spread, the number of infected people in many countries is actually relatively large. Judging from the actual situation in some European and American countries, the proportion of infected people in the overall population in many countries has basically reached more than 30 , some countries may even reach more than 50.

A large number of infected people have actually formed a kind of "herd immunity" to some extent, so even if the epidemic is relaxed, it will not have much impact on most people.

Sixth, the number of risk groups has significantly decreased.

As the new coronavirus develops today, although its transmissibility has become stronger, its toxicity has been significantly weakened and its fatality rate has also been significantly reduced. In some countries, the fatality rate of the new coronavirus may even be lower than that of ordinary epidemics. cold.

According to the current toxicity of the new coronavirus, as long as they have been vaccinated against the new coronavirus and their physical condition is relatively good, there will basically be no major problems, and many people can be cured after being infected.

From a global perspective, the real mortality rate is mainly concentrated in people over 60 years old. However, after nearly three years of development, most of these high-risk groups in many countries have been infected. The current risk The crowd has been significantly reduced, and even if the epidemic is relaxed, there will not be too many severe cases and deaths.

Seventh, the inability to fight the epidemic.

It has been nearly three years since the epidemic developed. In the past three years, global economic production and life have been greatly affected, and some countries have even fallen into economic recession due to the impact of the epidemic.

But for a country, the epidemic must be prevented and controlled, and it must also develop. After all, everyone has to live and work. If strict prevention and control measures are taken for a long time, the virus will not spread on a large scale in the end, but it will lead to Everyone's production and life have been greatly affected, and it will definitely arouse the resentment of many people.

So for the sake of economic development, some places can only choose to lie flat. Especially for those underdeveloped countries, choosing to lie flat is actually a last resort choice because they really have no more. A waste of financial resources and energy.

On the one hand, it is to further promote the vaccination rate of vaccines, especially the vaccination rate of the elderly, to further enhance the overall defense of society.

On the other hand, active treatment measures will still be taken for some patients diagnosed with the new coronavirus.

The other is that many countries still have some relevant requirements in public places, such as wearing masks, showing vaccination passes, etc.
