When assessing the epidemic situation in Poland, it is worth remembering that the monitoring of coronavirus infections is “only conventional”. – In fact, testing is gone, we have rather “on demand” testing when someone suspects an infection, or self-testing – Dr. Aneta Afelt reminded me in an interview with Medonet. – So it is not known what number of infections we are dealing with.

– I think that the official statistics say that there are about 5 a day. positive test results are actually about 10 percent. falling ill with COVID-19. I estimate that at the moment it may be approx. 30-40 thousand. new cases a day – estimates Dr.Michał Matyjaszczyk from the Polish Mother’s Health Center in Lodz. In his opinion, the number of cases will increase because people do not have free access to free tests, so fewer people are tested and it is much easier to spread the infection.

– The Omikron variant dominates in Poland, currently it has almost 100 percent. participation in infections. BA.5 has become the dominant sub-option, currently accounting for two-thirds of infections, the Minister of Health reported. We observe what is happening in the other selves. Only Spain and Austria are on the rise in infections, while in the others there are declines.
– At the moment, we are observing approx. 4 thousand. infections per day – this is the weekly average. As Adam Niedzielski explained, the peak of the summer wave of infections is near. – Happens this week or next week. We also forecast that the number of infections with a slight shift will translate into an increase in the number of hospitalized patients, which will take place in the second half of August.
