China reported 522,000 newly confirmed COVID-19 cases in July, including 487 severe cases and one related death with cases showing a fluctuating upward trend, China's national disease control authority said. 
The current uptick in infections represents another regular cyclical wave, with its severity comparable to surges seen in the past two years. The upward growth curve has slowed markedly, and the country is now on the plateau phase of this epidemic peak, said the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (Chinese CDC) on Thursday. 
All tested infection samples were confirmed to be the Omicron variant, with the NB.1.8.1 strain and its sublineages accounting for the majority of circulating cases, the Chinese CDC said. 
A Beijing-based respiratory disease specialist told the Global Times that waning population immunity, continued virus mutations that weaken existing antibody protection, and increased summer travel have contributed to the recent modest rise in infections. However, there is no evidence that the virus has become more pathogenic. Nationwide infections appear to be nearing their peak and case numbers may begin falling in late August.

According to sentinel hospital surveillance data, from June 29-July 5 to July 27-August 2, the proportion of influenza-like illness among all outpatient and emergency visits at China's 1,041 COVID-19 and influenza sentinel hospitals edged up with slight fluctuations, standing at 4.3 percent, 4.4 percent, 4.5 percent, 4.4 percent and 4.5 percent, respectively.
During the same period, the COVID-19 positivity rate among patients with influenza-like illness in outpatient and emergency departments rose for consecutive weeks.
Several factors drove the fluctuating rise in COVID-19 cases in July. Population immunity has waned, as more than six months have passed since the last major wave of infections for most people, while continued SARS-CoV-2 mutations have reduced the protection provided by existing antibodies, Li Tongzeng, a respiratory disease medic from Beijing You An Hospital to the Capital Medical University, told the Global Times on Friday. 
These factors, combined with increased travel and population mobility during the summer vacation, contributed to the recent small-scale surge. Based on patterns observed in recent years, COVID-19 infections tend to rise every six to eight months as population immunity declines, said Li.
The expert noted that while the virus continues to mutate, there is no evidence that it has become more pathogenic. Clinical data show that most patients develop only mild symptoms, with very few progressing to pneumonia or requiring hospitalization.
The Chinese CDC noted on Thursday that since COVID-19 was reclassified as a Category B infectious disease under Category B management, it has evolved into a prevalent, recurring respiratory infectious disease in China, with one to two epidemic fluctuations occurring nationwide each year.
Li also noted that residual immunity from previous infections also helps reduce disease severity, with most reinfections presenting as mild upper respiratory symptoms that resolve within about a week. The single COVID-related death reported nationwide in July further indicates that the current fatality rate remains very low.
Judging from historical epidemic patterns and current case growth trajectories, national infection figures may begin to decline in late August. Nationwide case numbers are now nearly at their peak, with declines already observed in some regions, said Li. 
The Chinese CDC also said on Thursday that surveillance had not detected any variants posing major public health risks, nor had the current wave caused notable disruptions to the healthcare system.
The public is advised to take appropriate protective measures, including wearing masks when necessary, maintaining good personal hygiene, adopting healthy lifestyles and getting vaccinated as recommended.
。         Advertise with us          车辆登记和路税是政府交通项目的重要融资工具。据 NZ Autocar 称，它们为政府预算增加了约 4.7亿纽币，管理费用为5000万纽币。         但AA表示，当前车辆挡风玻璃上的贴纸和随附文件系统已经过时，应该放弃。         AA汽车政策首席顾问Terry Collin说：“目前，这些信息都可用。如果你被警察拦住，警察已经知道你的路税是否已经更新，你的车辆是否注册，以及车辆是否有WoF证明。所有这些数据都保存在机动车登记系统中。”          他说，AA认为取消纸张工作和其他管理成本，将为司机省钱。         “如果购买路税，在柜台购买比在网络上购买贵10%。但是他们仍然还在坚持这种工作方式，而且工作时长达到10个工作日。”          Collins补充说，纸质贴纸仍然存在的唯一原因，是让司机能够及时了解一切到期时间，但他表示政府已经拥有了可以帮助实现这一目标的系统。

B |          上周，新西兰交通局发布了一款简化流程的APP，可以显示汽车的WoF、车辆登记和路税的到期日期。使用者可以一次性支付所有这些费用。         Collins表示，通过更加数字化的系统，合规性可能会得到改善。         “‘我忘记了’或‘我不知道该到期了’的借口越来越少，因为现在你已经收到了所有这些提醒。”          他唯一的建议，是为不经常使用手机的老年司机或农村地区的人们保留纸质贴纸。         1News 联系了交通部长 Simeon Brown，询问政府是否正在研究数字化系统。         Brown在一份声明中回应说：“政府致力于消除不必要的官僚机构，并以方便、及时的方式提供新西兰人所需的服务。         “我们的方法之一是数字化流程，例如WoF和车辆登记。我们已经发布了 NZTA 手机APP（测试版），该应用程序显示 WoF 和车辆登记信息（包括到期日）。迄今为止，用户对APP的反馈非常积极，NZTA 将继续更新和改进功能。”          相关阅读：          新APP上线，新西兰终于迈出电子驾照第一步了！          新西兰将推电子版驾照 各种交通费用都可在同一APP上支付          注：本文为编译/原创，欢迎转发分享；但严禁复制等未经授权的非法使用。违反上述声明者，本网将追究其相关法律责任。使用授权请联系[email protected]。
