No generalnie to nie jest za dobrze. Mam pewne obawy w związku z obecną sytuacją ponieważ to tylko niewielka część danych jaką molgibyśmy (i imho pownniśmy) mieć dostępną.

Już się praktycznie nie ruszam bez mojej ulubionej maski FFP2 / N95. Odpornosć stadna przy ciągle niejasnej przyszłości Long Covid to dla mnie za mało.

By the end of week 43 (ending 29 October 2023), rates of respiratory illness (influenza-like illness (ILI)/acute respiratory infection (ARI)) in the community were at expected levels for this time of the year in most EU/EEA countries and were driven in part by SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Increases in case counts continued to be reported, most notably among older age groups. This has translated into sustained increases in hospital or ICU admissions and deaths in some EU/EEA countries.

Consultation rates of patients presenting to sentinel general practitioners with respiratory illness (ILI/ARI) were reported by 20 countries up to week 43. Rates remained at similar levels to those observed in the same period last year in most EU/EEA countries. Fifteen countries reported data on testing for SARS-CoV-2 in these settings, with a pooled test positivity of 20% (median of country values: 21%; IQR: 16–27%).
