COVID-19: A Year-Round Health Concern
While summer weather traditionally brings an increase in sunburns and allergies, and winter often leads to a spike in sniffles and flu cases, the ongoing threat of COVID-19 is shifting this seasonal pattern. The coronavirus responsible for COVID-19 is making its presence felt across all seasons.
Recent data indicates a surge in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations during the summer months in various countries, including the UK, US, and France. In England alone, reported cases increased from approximately 180 cases per week in early April to over 500 cases by mid-July, highlighting the persistent threat of this virus.
