However, in her opinion, over time, coronavirus infection, including the Delta strain, may weaken, but one pathogen may be replaced by a new one – even stronger.
“By analogy with the flu virus, we can think that the activity of the epidemic process will decrease. However, the pathogen can change so much that our immunity, formed before the previous version, will be ineffective for subsequent generations. It can be replaced by a more aggressive pathogen. Therefore, we must always be ready to meet and organize events depending on how the epidemic situation will unfold, “- said the epidemiologist.
That is why, emphasizes Svetlana Doan, despite the difficult epidemic situation, which may decline, we must constantly deal with early detection of infection and do not forget that coronavirus, like other infections, should be treated at the first symptoms.
“Early detection of coronavirus infection, as well as its treatment, is extremely important. Early detection is early isolation of the source of infection, and therefore we will reduce the potential number of infected people. But in fact we often have a situation where a person already feels that he is infected, but he still goes to work, communicates with people. I got sick – I need to stay at home and start treatment immediately, “said the epidemiologist.
To the topic
Doctors told about the method of treating coronavirus infection with nebulizer inhalations. This method shows its effectiveness, because the medical device enters the upper respiratory tract (nasopharynx, oropharynx – ed.). This drug has already been developed by Israeli scientists. The special solution is used to treat the early stage and even prevents severe viral disease. No side effects have been reported with the drug, the researchers said. The total duration of treatment of patients was reduced by 2-3 times – up to 7-12 days.
