(Reuters.) Here is what you should know right now about the coronavirus:

China faces biggest Delta outbreak

China is currently fighting the largest COVID-19-related outbreak. This was caused by the transmissible Delta virus. Some areas have restricted entry for people coming from Dalian in northeast China. Infections there are more severe than in other parts of the country.

China’s worst-ever Delta virus outbreak has hit 21 provinces, areas, and cities. Although it is less severe than other outbreaks, authorities in China want to stop the spread of the virus using the zero tolerance guidance.

Britain to expand booster program to those below 50

The Times reported that the British government would likely extend COVID-19’s booster program to anyone under 50, in an effort to reduce transmission rates as winter nears.

According to the newspaper, Monday’s approval by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation is likely to be given.

Cambodia ends quarantine for vaccinated travellers

The Prime Minister Hun Sin said that Cambodia won’t require travellers to be quarantined if they have received COVID-19 vaccinations.

Hun Sen stated that travellers must have a positive test 72 hours before travel, and two doses of vaccine. Nearly 90% of Cambodia’s 16 million population has been vaccinated, making it one of Asia’s top inoculation countries.

Florida legislators meet to discuss vaccine mandates

Republican Governor Scott Walker has called for a special session of Florida legislators to meet on Monday. Ron DeSantis was created with the purpose of stopping coronavirus vaccine mandats.

According to an agenda published by the governor, four bills will be considered by lawmakers that are heavily dominated by Republicans. They would penalize local and business governments for requiring workers to receive COVID-19 vaccinations.

College athletes are rare to have long COVID

A large U.S. research suggests that college athletes infected by the coronavirus will not experience any long-term effects. The virus was found in more than 3,500 college athletes who were tested positive by scientists from 44 colleges and universities. Researchers wrote that only 1.2% of those tested positive for the virus experienced symptoms lasting longer than three weeks. Only 0.06% reported symptoms that last more than three months.

Dr Jonathan Drezner from the University of Washington, Seattle stated in a statement that the study showed that athletes can resume play without having to deal with COVID symptoms. But any new symptoms or chest pain should be considered seriously. Chest pain that is exerted should be checked, even if the initial cardiac test results are negative for COVID-19.
