Group 1: COVID-19 Trends in China - The China CDC reported an upward trend in COVID-19 positivity rates since April, with southern provinces showing higher rates than northern ones. The positivity rate for COVID-19 among outpatient flu-like cases rose from 7.5% in week 14 to 16.2% in week 18 [2]. - Hospitalized severe acute respiratory infection cases also saw an increase, with COVID-19 positivity rising from 3.3% to 6.3% during the same period [2]. - Despite the increase, the overall acute respiratory infectious disease situation remains low, and the likelihood of a large-scale outbreak is considered low [2].

Wastewater monitoring shows an increasing trend of the XDV variant, related to JN.1 [3]. - The Hong Kong health authorities are urging high-risk groups, particularly the elderly and those with chronic conditions, to receive the JN.1 vaccine booster [5]. Group 3: COVID-19 Developments in Taiwan - Taiwan has observed a 66% increase in outpatient visits due to COVID-19 compared to the previous week, although the numbers remain significantly lower than the same period last year [3]. - The rise in cases has been noted to occur earlier than last year, with expectations for a peak in June [3].
