The World Health Organization and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), said Wednesday that another wave of COVID-19 infection may have started in Europe.

“Although our situation is different than it was a year ago, it is evident that the COVID-19 pandemic continues,” Hans Kluge (WHO Europe director) and Andrea Ammon (ECDC director), said in a joint statement.

“We are starting to see indicators rise again in Europe. This suggests that another wave has started.”

WHO’s region-wise data revealed that only Europe experienced an increase in COVID-19 incidences in the week ended October 2, a 8% increase over the week before.

Public health experts warn that vaccine fatigue and confusion regarding available vaccines could limit booster uptake in this region.

According to the WHO and ECDC, millions of people in Europe are not yet vaccinated against COVID-19.

They called on European countries to provide both flu and COVID-19 shots in preparation for an anticipated rise in seasonal influenza cases.

ECDC and WHO stated that “there was no time for loss” and recommended that people over 60, pregnant women, and others with co-morbidities get vaccinated against COVID-19 and influenza.
