The World Health Organization (WHO) is tackling the huge increase in respiratory infections among Chinese youngsters as soon as possible.
According to the WHO, almost 13,000 children have been hospitalized, however, this does not indicate the presence of a new pandemic or a distinct COVID-19 strain.
Despite the escalating numbers, Chinese health officials state that no novel or rare infections have been identified in this outbreak.
The WHO is on high alert due to the absence of Covid early warning indicators, but acknowledges that existing information does not indicate to a new pandemic danger; yet, the situation remains urgent.
