What's behind recent Covid-19 surge in US? As hospitalizations due to disease rise by more than 12%

Daily Mail  

America is recording its first surge in Covid hospitalizations this year, but experts say it is nothing to worry about. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed 8,000 patients admitted to hospitals across the country last week, up 12 percent on the previous seven-day spell and the first week-on-week rise since December. Experts say the rise in hospitalizations may be down to the natural waning of immunity, which happens around six months after the previous wave of infections. Dr Brendan Jackson, a Covid incident manager for the CDC in Atlanta, Georgia, said: 'If you sort of imagine the decline in cases looking like a ski slope — going down, down, down for the last six months — we're just starting to see a little bit of an almost like a little ski jump at the bottom.' The Covid vaccines were last rolled out in the winter, with immunity from them against infection waning about six months later — although they do still protect against severe illness.
