Een adviesgroep van de Wereldgezondheidsorganisatie heeft dinsdag verklaard dat zij sterk voorstander is van dringende en brede toegang tot COVID-19-vaccins en boosters, met name voor mensen die een hoog risico op ernstige ziekte lopen.
De FDA en CDC hebben vorige week ingestemd met een tweede COVID-19 booster voor mensen van 50 jaar en ouder en alle volwassenen met bepaalde gezondheidsproblemen.
De CDC zei dat er in 2021 naar schatting 107.622 sterfgevallen door overdosis drugs waren, een stijging van 15% ten opzichte van het vorige record van 93.655 in 2020. Het aantal sterfgevallen door overdosis drugs steeg van 2019 tot 2020 met 30%.
Uit een nieuwe enquête blijkt dat slechts 18 procent van de ouders van kinderen jonger dan 5 jaar zegt van plan te zijn hun kind zo snel mogelijk tegen COVID te laten vaccineren,
Experts waren aanvankelijk optimistisch en wezen op een aantal mogelijke oorzaken voor de 3% daling van het aantal zelfmoorden in het land. Maar velen geloven dat de opioïde epidemie veel sterfgevallen maskeert die in werkelijkheid zelfmoorden waren.
