While Russia is gradually coping with the epidemic of the coronavirus, some experts are already awaiting the “second wave” of morbidity. They believe that illness, no matter how hard scientists and doctors, this summer finally disappears. In this case, how strong will the “second wave” COVID-19, will depend from many factors: weather, preparedness of health facilities and personnel, the personal responsibility of the Russians. Experts told “MK”, when waiting for a new powerful flash coronavirus and does Russia have a chance to do “little blood.”
half the world is trying to rid the pandemic COVID-19. Many experts are sure that after hurricane distribution hundreds of victims in the first weeks, now he had a fracture and the virus is on the wane. However, virologists gently talking about the “second wave”. So, the world health organization (who) call to prepare for it today. Experts approximate dates: from October to December. Moreover, the same who calls to remove restrictions and self-imposed isolation in the world.
“Second wave” of fear in Russia. In particular, the President Vladimir Putin at a meeting on sanitary-epidemiological situation in the country on may 22 warned in October-November or December, the spread of coronavirus infection in Russia may again increase.
the President was echoed by the CPS. He recommends not to hurry with the weakening of self-isolation. The Department also have no doubt that after a summer of improvement with the spread of the coronavirus, in the autumn our country will be a new outbreak.
Any viral disease is always a “wave”. And COVID-19 is no exception, – told “MK” a military doctor, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the “Strong Russia” in the Astrakhan region Sergey Kolushev. – A new outbreak of the autumn-winter period – it is already obvious. Another thing is that the virus is already weaker, and mankind will take it with fewer losses. Why? Will be trained: doctors, clinics, and the citizens themselves.
– And I have to say: Yes, the “second wave” potential, but only under one important condition: if the coronavirus have been ill less than 60% of the population, adds the infectious disease physician Olga Shevchenko. – There are laws of epidemiology, and he does not demolish. If infection been ill more than half the population, country, continent, world – no matter, no re-flash or what is now called the “second wave” will not. People already acquire herd immunity. And I dare to assume that almost all, inevitably, have been ill with the coronavirus.
At that, Shevchenko said, if the vaccine until the fall, the question about the second and third “waves” in General will not stand.
– However, you need and after you receive the vaccine, and even when a virus has receded, do not forget about elementary rules of hygiene, to comply with distance. Also, do not interfere during the SARS threat of the season go to the glove-mask mode. Actually, it is already clear: COVID-19 will be with us forever. This means that we need a careful approach to occupational health and strengthen the immune system. Nobody knows what viruses are an unpleasant surprise may even have to collapse, sums up Kadyshev.
