#ECDC assessment of the XBB.1.5 sub-lineage.

(...) This variant could have an increasing effect on the number of #COVID19 cases in the EU/EEA, but not within the coming month as it is currently only present in the EU/EEA at very low levels. (...)

RT @SKyriakidesEU: I welcome the agreement of Member States on a coordinated 🇪🇺 response to the #COVID19 situation in China at yesterday’s IPCR meeting.

China must share data transparently on its current situation.

We can only tackle the pandemic if we work closely together at EU and 🌍 level.

A surge in cases in China is not expected to impact the #COVID19 epidemiological situation in the EU/EEA, we are however constantly monitoring the situation with Member States, @EU_Commission & @WHO_Europe.

The #SARSCov2 variants circulating in China are already circulating in the EU, and as such are not challenging for the immune response of EU/EEA citizens. In addition, EU/EEA citizens have relatively high immunisation and vaccination levels.

There continues to be a lack of reliable data on #COVID19 cases, hospital admissions, deaths as well as ICU capacity & occupancy in China.

High levels of infections are expected in the coming weeks due to low population immunity & the relaxation of measures.

Impact of surge in China #COVID19 cases on epidemiological situation in EU/EEA.

The number of cases has reached a record high in China, peaking on 2.12.22. In the past three weeks, incidence has fallen, likely also due to a lower testing.
