Epidemic curves of the weekly rates of total confirmed and hospitalized cases were constructed from March 29th, 2020 (week 2020-14) to August 27th, 2022 (week 2022-34). We also displayed the weekly hospitalization percentage among confirmed cases, mechanical ventilation (intubated) cases among those hospitalized, and the in-hospital case fatality rate. Weekly periods were defined based on the dates of onset of symptoms. Epidemic waves correspond to the following onset of symptoms periods: the first wave from week 2020-14 to week 2020-40 (from March 29th, 2020 to October 3rd, 2020); the second wave from week 2020-41 until week 2021-21 (from October 4th, 2020 to May 29th, 2021); the third wave from week 2021-22 to week 2021-50 (from May 30th, 2021 until December 18th, 2021); the fourth wave from week 2021-51 to 2022-17 (from December 19th, 2021 to April 30th, 2022); and fifth wave from week 2022-18 to week 2022-34 (from May 1st, 2022 until August 27th, 2022).
COVID-19 epidemic curve and estimates. A Shows the number of COVID-19 confirmed cases (orange bars for total cases and dark green bars for hospitalized cases). The middle panel shows the number of hospitalization cases in dark green bars. B Contains the weekly trend of the following estimations: hospitalization percentage among confirmed cases (green line), intubation percentage among hospitalized (yellow line) and hospital case fatality rate (CFR) (red line). Figures include the onset of symptoms week period from 2020-14 (April 1st, 2020) to 2022-34 (August 27th, 2022). Dotted vertical lines represent the separation of the five epidemic waves. Epidemic waves correspond to the following onset of symptoms periods: the first wave from week 2020-14 to week 2020-40 (from March 29th, 2020 to October 3rd, 2020); the second wave from week 2020-41 until week 2021-21 (from October 4th, 2020 to May 29th, 2021); the third wave from week 2021-22 to week 2021-50 (from May 30th, 2021 until December 18th, 2021); the fourth wave from week 2021-51 to 2022-17 (from December 19th, 2021 to April 30th, 2022); and fifth wave from week 2022-18 to week 2022-34 (from May 1st, 2022 until August 27th, 2022)
COVID-19 estimates according to the five epidemic waves. The figure shows the following estimations with a 95% confidence interval: incidence rate among the population (orange bars), hospitalization rate among the population (dark green bars), hospitalization percentage among confirmed cases (green bars), hospital case fatality rate (red bars), mean hospital admission delay (purple bars) intubation percentage (yellow bars), and mean hospitalization days (blue bars). Epidemic waves correspond to the following onset of symptoms periods: the first wave from week 2020-14 to week 2020-40 (from March 29th, 2020 to October 3rd, 2020); the second wave from week 2020-41 until week 2021-21 (from October 4th, 2020 to May 29th, 2021); the third wave from week 2021-22 to week 2021-50 (from May 30th, 2021 until December 18th, 2021); the fourth wave from week 2021-51 to 2022-17 (from December 19th, 2021 to April 30th, 2022); and fifth wave from week 2022-18 to week 2022-34 (from May 1st, 2022 until August 27th, 2022)
Based on a subset of cases with variant information available since spring 2021, we found that the second, third, fourth, and fifth waves were dominated by the Alpha-Gamma, Delta, and Omicron variants, respectively (Additional file 1: Figure S1).
Severe COVID-19 outcomes according to age group. The figure shows the weekly trend of the following severe COVID-19 outcomes by age group: hospitalization percentage among confirmed cases (left panel), intubation percentage among hospitalized (middle panel) and hospital case fatality rate (right panel). Age groups are represented as follows: age below 20 years old in the green line, 20 to 39 years old in the blue line, 40 to 59 years in the orange line, and red line for the group aged 60 years old and over. Figures include the onset of symptoms from week 2020-14 to week 2022-34 (from April 1st, 2020, to August 27th, 2022). Dotted vertical lines represent the separation of the five epidemic waves. Epidemic waves correspond to the following onset of symptoms periods: the first wave from week 2020-14 to week 2020-40 (from March 29th, 2020 to October 3rd, 2020); the second wave from week 2020-41 until week 2021-21 (from October 4th, 2020 to May 29th, 2021); the third wave from week 2021-22 to week 2021-50 (from May 30th, 2021 until December 18th, 2021); the fourth wave from week 2021-51 to 2022-17 (from December 19th, 2021 to April 30th, 2022); and fifth wave from week 2022-18 to week 2022-34 (from May 1st, 2022 until August 27th, 2022)
The overall hospital case fatality rate was 45.1% (95% CI 44.9, 45.3) and fluctuated over time, having its highest value during the second winter 2020 epidemic wave (50.8%, 95% CI 50.6%, 51.1%) followed by a significant decrease during the third (43.6%, 95% CI 43.3%, 44.0%), fourth (34.7%, 95% CI 34.2%, 25.2%), and fifth waves (17.7%, 95% CI 17.1%, 18.4%). It correlated with confirmed cases' epidemic peaks (Figs. 1B and 2E).
During the COVID-19 epidemic, we observed a decrease in the frequency of previous medical conditions among confirmed cases. We also observed an increase in RAT during the second wave and in COVID-19 vaccination from the third to the fifth wave (Additional file 1: Figure S6).
In a multivariate logistic regression model, the risk of hospitalization among confirmed cases was positively associated with comorbidities, age, and male gender; and inversely associated with wave progression and complete vaccination before the onset of symptoms. The risk of death during hospitalization was reduced for those patients previously vaccinated, the fourth and fifth waves, and those admitted to an intensive care unit. As expected, this risk was increased for men and patients with comorbidities and was positively associated with age and intubation (Table 3).
The COVID-19 pandemic has been characterized by a multi-wave pattern driven by multiple factors, including social control measurements, SARS-CoV-2 variants, testing practices, vaccination, and health care infrastructure. In this report, we described the epidemiological patterns of COVID-19 during five epidemic waves from surveillance data reported by IMSS, the most extensive Mexican and Latin-American social security system. Roughly, we observed an increase in reported incidence and a decrease in the severity of COVID-19 confirmed cases over time. Additionally, based on a subset of samples, we found that the second, third, fourth, and fifth waves were dominated by the Alpha-Gamma, Delta, and Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variants, respectively. During the first three waves, Mexico experienced a high in-hospital mortality rate associated with hospitalization criteria for critical patients with comorbidities. Further research is needed to improve case management during future pandemics.
Before the fifth wave, Hong Kong had managed to remain free of local cases of COVID-19 for almost 100 days, ascribed to the enforcement of moderate non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) and stringent border control measures, just to be balanced with relatively normal economic activities and social lives. A complete lock down of the city was never an option. Hong Kong had been very successful in containing the Alpha and Delta variants. One of the first cases of human infection with the Omicron variant was reported in Hong Kong in November 2021. The complete sequence of the Omicron variant was quickly determined. The transmission of the virus to another person with no physical contact with the index case through aerosols within a quarantine hotel was also documented [1]. There was no local transmission in the next 40 days until two crew members of Cathay Pacific Airlines brought the virus to our communities. Although we successfully contained the transmission of the Omicron variant from these two sources and that of the Delta variant from hamsters in the pet stores to humans [2], the highly transmissible BA.2 subvariant of Omicron outcompeted our containment efforts. The explosive spreading of BA.2 was retrospectively determined to initiate from an incident in a quarantine hotel, where a South Asian woman was infected by other foreign quarantinees staying in another room and with no face-to-face contact. Airborne transmission was suspected and the incident was thought to occur towards the end of her 21-day quarantine stay. She passed on the BA.2 virus to her husband, who in turn infected in Yat Kwai House, Kwai Chung Estate a cleaning lady, one of the first super-spreaders in the outbreak. The outbreak quickly proceeded to the explosive phase and went out of control under close monitoring. Although multiple NPI measures were enforced before the start of the explosive phase, their effects were in doubt. It is widely believed that NPIs alone, such as social distancing, mass testing for viral RNA, closedown of restaurants and other high-risk places, contract tracing, quarantine and isolation, might be capable of preventing major outbreaks caused by the Alpha or Delta variant, but they might not be sufficient when the Omicron variant is the culprit. The fifth wave is a turning point in the fight against COVID-19 in Hong Kong. Lessons learned from this will be most relevant and beneficial to other regions and countries that stick to a zero COVID-19 policy. Below are six of these hard-learned lessons. 2ff7e9595c
