The first case of ‘Florona’ disease has been reported in Israel, which is believed to be a double infection of Kovid-19 and influenza.
A Hindustan Times report said the first case of florona was reported earlier this week in a pregnant woman who was admitted to Rabin Medical Center to give birth. The report quoted Yedioth Ahronoth, an Israeli newspaper, as saying that the young woman was not vaccinated.
The news of the new disease has come at a time when the world is witnessing a new surge due to the Omicron variant of Kovid-19. Countries such as the US, France and the UK have seen record fresh infections and high hospitalizations due to the spread of the new variant.
Is there a new version of Florona?
Florona is not a new version. It is considered the occurrence of flu and corona at the same time.
Why are doctors worried?
Israeli doctors said the new disease is being studied because the country has recently seen an increase in influenza cases. Nahla Abdel Wahab, a doctor at Cairo University Hospital, said the fluorine could indicate a major breakdown of the immune system because two viruses are entering the human body at the same time.
Israel giving fourth dose
Israel has started giving a fourth dose of the vaccine to people most vulnerable to the coronavirus. It is one of the first countries to do so as it prepares for a wave of infections driven by the Omicron version.
Israel, which led a world-beating vaccination program in 2020, will administer the fourth dose of the vaccine to individuals with weakened immune systems and to elderly residents and staff in care homes. The rollout of the fourth dose began Friday morning at Israel’s Sheba Medical Center and is administered to heart and lung transplant patients.
The country is currently experiencing a new wave of infections driven by the transmissible Omron variant. 4,085 new cases were reported on Thursday, the highest daily number of infections seen in Israel since the end of September. It imposed new restrictions late Thursday to curb rising infection rates ahead of New Year’s Eve celebrations. These include a green pass, given to fully vaccinated individuals or who have recently recovered from the coronavirus, for outdoor events of more than 100 people and mandatory for outdoor events of more than 50 people.
