When we enter autumn, the ratio of respiratory diseases begins to rise, and people ask how the most common current genealogy or genetic -like virus groups are compared with the previous Covid -19 variations.

You can see our latest data National flu and covid-19 surveillance report.
Current data does not indicate that these variants lead to more serious diseases than other variants of circulation.
It is normal for the virus to change and change, and if you can use more data on these modifications, you can better understand the methods of interacting with the immune system and how to optimize the protection, and to maintain the most vulnerable safety and to take our lives as normal as possible.

We post the latest surveillance data for Covid-19 and other respiratory diseases.UKHSA data dashboard. We also get important data from those who are admitted to the hospital with symptoms, and use genome sequencing to understand the most vulnerable variations.
The hospital is a place where we can see more serious cases, and we will monitor the number of people who test positive or covid-19 very carefully. This helps to understand the current growth rate and transmission potential.
We continue to cooperate with the health organizations of other countries around the world.WhoAnd the same initiativeGlobal influenza monitoring and response system (GISAID)Have the latest data.
