2019’un sonunda Çin’in Hubei eyaleti Wuhan şehrinde ortaya çıkan ve yayılanSARS-CoV-2 virüsü sonucu meydana gelen COVID-19 pandemisihalen ciddi bir halk sağlığı problemi olarak etkisini sürdürmektedir. Virüsün yarasa kaynaklı olduğu düşünülmektedir. Hastalık damlacık ve temas yolu ile insandan insana bulaşmaktadır. İnkübasyon süresi ortalaması 4-5 gün (0-14 gün) olarak gösterilmiştir. En yaygın semptomları ateş, kuru öksürük ve nefes darlığıdır. Hastalık ileri yaş ve komorbid hastalığı olan kişilerde şiddetli ve mortal seyredebilmektedir. Erkeklerde daha fazla fatalite hızı gösterilmiştir. Fatalite hızı dünya genelinde %2-3 olarak değişmektedir. Yaş arttıkça fatalite hızı artmaktadır. Rutin BCG aşısı politikasının mortaliteyi azalttığı düşünülmektedir. Teşhis olası vakalarda virüsün solunum sekresyonlarında özel moleküler testlerle gösterilmesi ile konur. Klinik şüphe varlığında tedavi planlamasında akciğer grafisi ve bilgisayarlı tomografi gibi görüntüleme yöntemleri kullanılmaktadır. Esas olarak destekleyii ve ampirik tedavi uygulanmakta olup spesifik tedavisi ve aşısı henüz yoktur. İnsanların temasının azaltılması, kesin ve şüpheli vakaların izolasyonu ve bulaştan korunmak için kişisel koruyucu ekipmanların etkin kullanımı salgın ile mücadelede çok büyük öneme sahiptir.
In late 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic, which occurred and spread as a result of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the Chinese Hubei state of Wuhan, continues to be a serious public health problem. It is believed that the virus is caused by the wound. The disease is transmitted from humans to humans through the drops and contact. The incubation period is indicated as an average of 4-5 days (0-14 days). The most common symptoms are fever, dry cough and breathing difficulty. The disease can be seen as severe and mortal in people with aging and comorbid disease. More fatality has been shown in men. The rate of mortality varies between 2% and 3% worldwide. As you age, the rate of fatality increases. It is believed that the routine BCG vaccine policy reduces mortality. In possible cases, the diagnosis is placed by the indication of the virus in the respiratory secretions by special molecular tests. In the presence of clinical doubt, treatment planning uses imaging methods such as lung graphics and computer tomography. Basically supports and ampiric treatment is underway and there is no specific treatment and vaccine yet. Reducing people’s contact, isolating accurate and suspicious cases, and the effective use of personal protective equipment to protect against infection is of great importance in the fight against epidemic.
The COVID-19 outbreak, which occurred as a result of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that spread in the city of Wuhan, Hubei province in late 2019, is a public health crisis. The virus is thought to be caused by bat. The disease is transmitted from person to person through droplets and contact. Incubation time is shown as 4-5 days (0-14 days). The most common symptoms are fever, dry cough, and shortness of breath. The disease can be severe and fatal in people with old age and comorbid disease. More fatality rates were shown in men than in women. The global fatality rate is known as 2-3%. As the age increases, the rate of fatality increases. Routine BCG vaccine policy is thought to reduce mortality. The diagnosis is made in possible cases by showing the virus in respiratory secretions by special molecular tests. In the presence of clinical suspicion, imaging methods such as chest radiography and computed tomography are used in treatment planning. Mainly supportive and empirical treatment is used and specific treatment and vaccine are not yet available. Effective use of personal protective equipment to reduce contact with people, isolation of precise and suspicious cases and protection from contamination is crucial to combating the epidemic.
