WASHINGTON: The Delta variant of the Corona is making waves in countries around the world, including the US, Russia, Brazil and China. According to figures released by Johns Hopkins University, the total number of corona patients in the world has exceeded 20.1 million while the death toll from the epidemic has exceeded 42.7 million.

The Delta variant infection is spreading so fast that hospitals in Florida, Louisiana and Mississippi are overflowing with corona patients. There is a shortage of beds in many hospitals. Health officials in Houston said health services have come under stress due to the new wave of corona. The number of corona patients in the US has risen to 35,695,091 while the death toll has risen to 6,16,483.

The death toll in Brazil has risen to 5,61,762, with 1,056 deaths in the last 24 hours. The total number of patients in Russia has risen to 64,24,884, with 22,320 new cases of corona reported in the last 24 hours. A total of 1,64,094 deaths have been reported in Russia in a single day, with 793 deaths due to corona.

Restrictions have been tightened in Beijing following the registration of 107 new cases of corona in China. Now it has been made mandatory to show a negative test of corona to enter Beijing. In Pakistan too, the fourth wave of corona has registered 4720 new cases of corona in the last 24 hours and 95 people have died. The infection rate in Pakistan has risen to more than nine per cent.

The total number of corona cases in Ladakh has risen to 20,378 following the registration of nine new corona cases. Currently, there are 65 active cases in Ladakh Union Territory. A total of 207 people have died due to corona in Ladakh.

In the UK, meanwhile, Prime Minister Johnson Boris's aides are growing angry at Johns for deciding not to be isolated for ten days despite a positive Corona test.

However, a government spokesman said the prime minister had not been in close contact with anyone who tested positive. The prime minister's aide traveled with the prime minister on a Royal Air Force Voyager flight between Glasgow and Aberdeen on Wednesday.

Singapore's Health Minister Ong Ye Kung said in an interview that the number of cases of corona is likely to increase due to the increase in the movement of people due to the growth of trade and business in the economy.

He told people to be mentally prepared for the matter. He emphasized the need to focus on corona vaccination, and said that Singapore would now be reopening in four phases, starting on Tuesday.

Transportation restrictions will be eased and vaccinators' lanes will be opened. In which travel between Singapore and selected countries will be allowed without staying in isolation. Emphasis will be placed on repeated testing instead of stay home notice.

With 80 per cent of Singapore's population vaccinated against corona, the country is now moving to the transition stage. At this stage, a maximum of five vaccinated people will be admitted to bars and restaurants. From August 10, people will be able to eat from the fair and also go to the coffee shop.

The CDC report in the US urges people who have previously been infected with corona and have recovered to take the corona vaccine, as one study found that those who ignored the advice were twice as likely to be re-infected with the corona. CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Valensky said the best way to protect against the Delta variant is to get vaccinated.

People who have previously been infected with the corona and six months after recovery have been more likely to be infected with the Delta variant. Meanwhile, Raja Krishnamurthy, a leading Indian-American Congressman, expressed frustration over the USA allocating only 7.5 million doses of Corona to India and urged the Biden administration to expand its global vaccination aid program.

Raja Krishnamurthy, Pramila Jaipal, Senator Jeff Merkel and Elizabeth Ware have introduced the Nullifying Opportunities for Variants You Infect and Decimat Act. Which has 116 members in his favor. If passed, the bill would allow the government to use 34 34 billion to produce eight billion doses of the corona vaccine and help other countries fight the corona epidemic.
