  Yili Prefecture is the origin and hardest hit area of ​​the epidemic in Xinjiang.

According to reports, the virus in this outbreak in Yili, Xinjiang is the evolutionary branch of the Omicron variant strain BA.5.2, which is highly contagious and spreads rapidly, showing hidden transmission and family aggregation.

  According to the Shanghai Municipal Health Commission, the epidemic situation in Shanghai has been relatively stable recently. Since August, there have been no new infections in the society for about 20 days.

However, in the recent period, due to the frequent flow of people during the summer vacation, the newly infected people in the society are all people with a history of living in other provinces and cities and their related personnel, and the virus infected is still the Omicron variant.
