COVID cases continue to fall globally, but yet another Omicron subvariant has appeared

LA Times  

The number of coronavirus cases reported globally has dropped for a second consecutive week, and confirmed COVID-19 deaths also fell last week, according to a World Health Organization report issued Wednesday. In its latest pandemic report, the United Nations health agency said 9 million cases were reported, a 16% weekly decline, and more than 26,000 new deaths were attributed to COVID-19. The agency said it was also tracking yet another Omicron variant that is a recombination of two versions: BA.1 and BA.2, which was first detected in Britain in January. Meanwhile, Chinese authorities conducted more mass testing this week across Shanghai, which remains in lockdown after another jump in infections; the city has recorded more than 90,000 cases but no deaths during the pandemic.
