Symptoms Of Disease Such As Covid Virus | Common Cold Vs Corona Virus | How Does SARS CoV--2 Spread | #b

 

 

In the last post we had discussed this virus and its consequences, continue with last we will get to know further about this, 

 Corona Virus has spread in more than 100 countries across the world. According to the last and latest information, if you contract it, then what will be people's symptoms? 

How are these symptoms different from the common cough and cold?

How easily does it spread and how fatal can it be for us?

How are the governments and countries across the world reacting to it?

What are the DO and the DON'T?

 

It is difficult to ascertain the exact reason behind this but experts have given their opinion on why this is happening

 

Following are the main reasons that have been put forward in the case of safety in below country,

 

The prior reason is that 70% of the Corona Virus cases are in the young people in Germany and these are those people that had gone to spend their vacations skiing in Italy. So these were the  first people to bring the infection to Germany and so the majority of the cases are in the young people and since young people have a better chance of survival, their fatality/mortality rate is low.

 

That country took testing very seriously and has been conducting tests on a very large scale of the common people.

 

And last has been said to be the good healthcare system of the country. The hospital bed availability in such a country is far better in comparison with the other countries. When people focus at the hospital beds in the European countries per hundred thousand population, then Germany emerges at prior and Italy comes way below with its hospitality. So it is quite clear that if we want to restrict the spread of this virus, then testing needs to be increased in every country.

 

According to the latest information, this virus is mainly spread by person-to-person contact. If people are in close contact with an infected person, then people have a very high chance of contracting the virus.

 

Another source is respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes, then if the respiratory droplets that come outgo inside your nose or mouth, then you too can get the infection.

 

And if these respiratory droplets persist in the air, then the virus can survive for some of the hours in the air. If they fall on a surface, then this virus can survive more on cardboard. And the virus can survive up to some days on plastic and steel.

 

 

R0 that is, reproduction rate tells us the count or rate of reproduction of the virus. It means how many more people will an infected person infect, on average, actually on average a person will infect two to three people (it is low but remember that person can spread the virus to another three people and that is more not so good. Therefore stay safe and always be healthy).

 

In comparison with a lot of other diseases, it is quite low but when compared with flu, The R0 value of flu is 1.3, so this is many times more than that the SARS virus that had spread in 2003 had an R0 value similar to it, if not more. But then too, that virus did not spread anywhere beyond China and South East Asia. 

For some reason, the world was successful in controlling it, and now it is not easily possible in controlling the novel coronavirus. 

Due to this virus, talks of social distancing are being done now. That is, avoid getting out of your homes and when people do get out of their houses, then maintain distance from the other people. So that they do not come into close contact with them and the infection does not spread a lot. Anyone might think that he is healthy and how does it affect him so much?

 

If everyone practices social distancing how much of an effect it would have on the spread of the virus. There was a very interesting simulation made by the Washington newspaper through some dots. Consider every dot on it as a person, a blue dot means a healthy person, A brown dot represents an infected person and another dot stands for a person who has recovered. All elderly people got infected and later, they recovered. At the same example if everyone practices social distancing from one another that is, if they do not come out of their houses, then the dot is not going to move- it is going to remain stable. 

 

 

On another side of this point, if more than a number of people want to come to the hospital, then our healthcare system will not be able to keep them. There will be a scarcity of both hospital and hospital beds, So this is what is going to happen without social distancing. 

Suppose when so many infected people will come in and not enough hospital beds will be available for them. So the people that can be saved will also not get save. This is called flattening the curve. And this is the exact reason why COVID-19 became such a huge crisis in many countries such as Italy. The government there was not prepared.

 

Infected people rose much drastically that there was a dearth of space in hospitals. There was not enough hospital stuff. Then, the situation was so pathetic that the doctors had to decide which patient to treat novel. This is the reason why the other countries took the example of Italy and learned from it. 

And now the countries across the world have been taking more action towards social distancing, public places are being shut down. People are being aware to stay indoors. Novel hospitals are being constructed or various stadiums are being converted into hospitals. so that there is sufficient availability of hospital kinds of stuff.

 

And this is the reason why the government had announced a "curfew". As a priority, this is a great decision to tell people to not step out of their homes and to self-quarantine themselves.  

But, it will not be enough, People have been told to not step out of their houses and so on. Adopt as many social distancing measures as possible.

We too, need to take stricter measures, there is nothing to get worried. Some people state that the spread of the virus will be contained due to the heat with the onset of summers. Some percentage of the spread of this virus is reduced, due to the lockdown of the cities, as well as shut down of public places, the people have been unable to work. This will have such an economic impact on the world economy. Which hasn't been seen in centuries

 

No doubt, some governments have already declared they will pay salaries to the people who are unable to go to work. The governments will save the companies from being shut down. In a lot of European countries, in New Zealand, in the United Kingdom, and even in the United States, it has been declared that government funds worth billions of dollars are being brought in to save the people from its economic impact.

 

Politics is changing worldwide, right-wing parties have been talking about left-wing policies, that they would give out money to the people and money would be given in the hands of the consumers.

 

 So, that’s it this topic does not have any proper solution easily. So, do not forget to wash your hands. Because handwashing is one of the most important preventive measures, which people can take up to protect themselves from COVID 19, wash your hands in the right way or in the proper manner.
