🇨🇳 China Faces New COVID-19 Surge with Recombinant Variant XDV.1

Recent reports from China reveal a concerning resurgence of COVID-19 driven by a new recombinant variant, XDV.1, which combines Delta and Omicron strains. Image
This development marks a surprising turn of events, as many had assumed the Delta and its sub-lineages had waned over the past few years.

Researchers confirm XDV.1 has spread to several provinces, including Hubei, Henan, Anhui, Hunan, Shanxi, and Hebei.
Unlike previous KP variants, XDV.1 is evolving rapidly, generating new sub-lineages with concerning mutations.

Reports indicate a rise in hospitalizations across affected provinces, with Hubei experiencing the most severe impact.
Local authorities have set up screening centers and temporary clinics to manage the situation and are advising those who test positive to isolate at home.
Although there are no lockdowns in place, checkpoints have been established in Hubei to limit unnecessary travel and curb the spread of the virus.
