(6 years ago)In an interview for the famous “La Repubblica” viorologist of the University of Milan, Fabrizio Pregliacsco, has answered some fundamental questions about the disturbing situation Coronavirus has brought to Italy and the world. According to him, this virus has similarities with the so - called “swine belt” and, according to him, the state is acting according to principle, the case [...]
According to him, this virus has similarities with the so-called “pork belt”, and according to it, the state is acting according to principle, on the case of the worst possible event.
Hence, drastic measures have also been taken that have caused panic in citizens of neighboring countries. The problem of this virus according to the virologist is that there is not yet a cure or a vaccine, but also as in previous cases of deadly flus, he says that such situations have always been brought under control.
Is it true that we should not worry about the virus?
The actions we see from institutions now follow the principle of the worst hypothetical situation, so what would happen in the worst case. We act as if we are ready to face the famous Spanish flu - that is, as if we were facing a very disturbing virus, so extreme measures have been taken.
Preparing for the worst, enables better management of a situation, for a disease that currently does not have drugs or vaccines. We as experts come from the positive experiences of previous pandemic risk viruses like SARS and H1N1, the so-called flus of “fraders”, which we've managed to control”
Will Coronavirus ' future eruptions increase?
“Yes, however, the hope is that they will be lowered as soon as possible, and it seems to me that significant measures have been taken urgently. If the cases don't stop, then we have to draw up the pandemic plans that already exist.
These measures, for example, worry about how hospital management will be managed to cope with a large measure of patients. Number of patients is one thing to manage. Patients, as the Chinese did, must then be followed without a net, so without listening to their activity, this is another line that should be adopted immediately, that of specific routes for coronary patients. ”
Why isn't “patient zero”?
The “can now only become hypotheses. There may have been some people who returned from China to an early stage, when there was not the full attention of the last days. Perhaps in a family, or in a closed context, an incubation situation arose, and distribution began. Now we see the effects but we're no longer able to monitor “the zero” because it may have healed “. /Tema
