For many, this signalled the pandemic was over. But the virus continues to infect millions of people globally and the WHO recognises COVID as an ongoing pandemic. In Australia, more than 50,000 infections have been reported so far in 2024. And this is likely to be a significant underestimate, as we are testing much less than we used to.

2nd vaccine dose :: Article Creator Cholera Vaccine Shortage Reaches Worst Point Yet, With Experts Fearing Deadly Outbreaks An unprecedented shortage of cholera vaccine has public health experts fearing that a recent surge of outbreaks across developing countries will only worsen, a situation they argue is as regrettable as it was avoidable. At least 16 countries in Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean are dealing with cholera outbreaks.
