一 | Manila, Oct 21 (UNI) "The pandemic is not yet over," a World Health Organization (WHO) official warned on Friday, saying the continued emergence of subvariants "poses a risk of resurgence and overwhelming health systems."
Babatunde Olowokure, director of Health Security and Emergencies for WHO in the Western Pacific, said Singapore and New Zealand are experiencing surges of Covid-19 cases, while Philippines, South Korea, Japan, Mongolia, and Vietnam have shown a sustained decline of cases, hospitalization, and deaths since August.
Olowokure told a press conference that the circulation of Covid-19 Omicron XBB subvariant is fueling the surge in Singapore, while the BA.5 is still the dominant variant in New Zealand.
"Singapore reimposed public health safety measures such as limiting visitors in hospitals and residential care homes," he said.
WHO data showed that the Western Pacific Region tallied over 92 million confirmed Covid-19 cases, including more than 270,000 deaths since the highly infectious and fatal disease emerged in 2020.
Olowokure said the decline of cases in several countries is due to "relatively high vaccine coverage," but he urged people to remain vigilant despite the decline in reported cases regionally and globally, adding that the coronavirus continues to circulate in the region.
UNI/XINHUA PRT。 随着索尼宣布自2028年起将停止第一方游戏光盘的生产，实体游戏介质的前景日益引发行业担忧。
二 | 在此背景下，Insomniac Games开发、即将于9月15日发售的《漫威金刚狼》成为少数仍将发行光盘版的第一方作品。 然而，近日一则报道称，索尼已开始对零售商施加压力，禁止其对《漫威金刚狼》实体版预购提供任何折扣。据巴西电商平台Shopee上的本地零售商Gamer Hut在社交媒体上透露，该店收到来自“外部方”的强硬要求：若继续销售《漫威金刚狼》实体版预购，则不得允许顾客使用Shopee平台本身提供的优惠券。这意味着消费者必须以全价购买该游戏光盘。Gamer Hut表示，这些优惠券原本旨在帮助玩家以更实惠的价格购买游戏，但外部方明确禁止其使用。该店铺最终选择暂停预购销售，而非遵守这一要求。 Gamer Hut未透露外部方的具体身份，仅表示“为保持产品可售，客户不得使用优惠券”。此举迅速引发玩家与业内人士的猜测，普遍认为索尼是此次禁令的幕后推手。也有分析指出，负责巴西地区物理软硬件发行的官方合作伙伴Solutions 2 Go同样可能参与其中。但令人困惑的是，目前其他零售商如Mercado Livre仍可正常提供《漫威金刚狼》的预购优惠，尚不清楚为何仅有一家店铺遭到针对性施压。截至发稿，索尼与Solutions 2 Go均未就此事发表任何官方声明。 本文由游民星空制作发布，未经允许禁止转载。更多相关资讯请关注：漫威金刚狼专区。
