MYANMAR’S COVID-19 positive cases rose to 630,742 after 139 new cases were reported on 24 October 2022 according to the Ministry of Health. Among these confirmed cases, 604,500 have recovered from disease. Death toll reaches 19,477 after one death.
According to the study of people
who had COVID-19 and people who died of COVID-19 from 28-1-2022 to 15-10-2022,
it has been found that 90.4 per cent of Covid patients and 80.9 per cent of
Covid deaths are not vaccinated at all or fully vaccinated, respectively.
According to the international
study, it is found that people who have been vaccinated do not suffer severely
from the disease, need not to be hospitalized and are unlikely to die. If they
have received booster shots, the death rates can be reduced more. Therefore, it
is a must for people aged five and above to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
The Ministry of Health is giving
free vaccinations to all people aged five and above. Booster shots of vaccine
are being given to students between the ages of 12 and 18 and people aged 18
and over.
Therefore, people should contact
local health centres and village/ward administration offices to receive
vaccinations. The information about COVID-19 disease can be seen on the
Ministry of Health official website www.moh.gov.mm.
