标题：中疾控预测：新冠疫情可能在本月回升，JN.1变异株或成优势流行株
中新社北京1月14日电 – 中国疾病预防控制中心病毒病所国家流感中心主任王大燕今日在北京表示，尽管元旦假期后的全国新冠病毒感染疫情仍处于较低水平，但预计可能在本月出现回升。
王大燕主任在发布会上详细解释了这一预测的依据。他指出，尽管目前的疫情控制措施有效，但由于新冠病毒的高度变异性，新的病毒株可能会对疫情走势产生影响。他特别提到了JN.1变异株，认为这种新的变异株有可能在未来成为优势流行株。
“JN.1变异株已经在一些地区出现，并且有迹象表明它可能具有更强的传播能力。”王大燕主任说，“我们需要密切关注这种新变异株的发展情况，并做好相应的防控准备。”
他还强调，公众应继续保持防疫意识，遵守防控措施，如佩戴口罩、保持社交距离、勤洗手等，以降低感染风险。同时，他也呼吁医疗机构和相关部门加强监测，及时发现和应对新的病毒株。
中国疾病预防控制中心将继续密切关注疫情变化，及时发布最新信息，为公众提供准确的防控指导。

News Content: Title: China CDC Predicts: COVID-19 Infections May Rise This Month, JN.1 Variant May Become the Dominant Strain
China News Service, Beijing, January 14 – Wang Dayan, Director of the National Influenza Center at the Virus Disease Institute of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said in Beijing today that although the national COVID-19 infection situation remains low after the New Year holiday, it is expected to rise this month.
At the press conference, Director Wang explained in detail the basis for this prediction. He pointed out that although the current epidemic control measures are effective, due to the high variability of the new coronavirus strain, new strains may have an impact on the trend of the epidemic. He specifically mentioned the JN.1 variant and believed that this new variant may become the dominant strain in the future.
“The JN.1 variant has already appeared in some areas, and there are signs that it may have stronger transmission capabilities,” Director Wang said. “We need to closely monitor the development of this new variant and be prepared for corresponding prevention and control measures.”
He also stressed that the public should continue to maintain awareness of epidemic prevention, follow prevention and control measures such as wearing masks, maintaining social distance, and washing hands frequently to reduce the risk of infection. At the same time, he called on medical institutions and relevant departments to strengthen monitoring, timely detection and response to new strains.
The China CDC will continue to closely monitor changes in the epidemic situation, release the latest information in a timely manner, and provide accurate guidance for public prevention and control.”
