Как замедлить распространение вируса и как распознать его признаки?

Уилл Мюррей представляет последние данные о глобальной пандемии и делится лучшими практиками соблюдения осторожности.

В настоящее время данные по смертности преодолели отметку в 10 000 случаев, связанных с COVID-19, и более 250 000 случаев заражения по всему миру. За последние 24 часа Италия обогнала Китай по количеству смертей, связанных с этим вирусом, несмотря на то, что в самом Китае почти вдвое больше случаев заболевания. Некоторые ставят под сомнение точность китайских данных, в то время как другие причиной этого видят в крахе итальянской службы здравоохранения в некоторых регионах страны.

Наибольшее количество смертей происходит из-за того, что не хватает мест в отделениях интенсивной терапии. Общественные эксперты продолжают рекомендовать следующие профилактические меры, чтобы замедлить распространение вируса и ограничить нагрузку на службы здравоохранения:

  • Часто мойте руки с мылом и водой не менее 20 секунд;
  • Во время кашля и чихания перекрывайтесь локтем;
  • Не касайтесь глаз, носа и рта немытыми руками;
  • Даже если у вас не наблюдаются симптомы вы все равно должны работать из дома, по возможности, и избегать общественных мест;
  • Соблюдайте социальную дистанцию;
  • Избегайте тесного контакта с людьми, которые плохо себя чувствуют, насколько это возможно.

Национальная служба здравоохранения Великобритании (NHS) предоставила рекомендации для тех, у кого проявляются симптомы. Если у вас есть следующие симптомы, вы должны оставаться дома не менее 7 дней или до того, как нормализуется ваша температура тела:

  • Высокая температура;
  • Вам жарко прикасаться к груди или спине;
  • Новый постоянный кашель.

Если вы живете с другими людьми, они должны оставаться дома в течение 14 дней со дня появления симптомов у первого человека, поскольку до появления симптомов может пройти время. Если у вас проявляются симптомы и вы живете с кем-то старше 70 лет или с человеком у которого слабое здоровье, NHS рекомендует найти им место для 14 дневного карантина и максимально ограничить контакты с ними.

Thursday Interview: Murad Muradov

Thursday Interview: Murad Muradov

Today, commonspace.eu starts a new regular weekly series. THURSDAY INTERVIEW, conducted by Lauri Nikulainen, will host  persons who are thinkers, opinion shapers, and implementors in their countries and spheres. We start the series with an interview with Murad Muradov, a leading person in Azerbaijan's think tank community. He is also the first co-chair of the Action Committee for a new Armenian-Azerbaijani Dialogue. Last September he made history by being the first Azerbaijani civil society activist to visit Armenia after the 44 day war, and the start of the peace process. Speaking about this visit Murad Muradov said: "My experience was largely positive. My negative expectations luckily didn’t play out. The discussions were respectful, the panel format bringing together experts from Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Turkey was particularly valuable during the NATO Rose-Roth Seminar in Yerevan, and media coverage, while varied in tone, remained largely constructive. Some media outlets though attempted to represent me as more of a government mouthpiece than an independent expert, which was totally misleading.  Overall, I see these initiatives as important steps in rebuilding trust and normalising professional engagement. The fact that soon a larger Azerbaijani civil society visits to Armenia followed, reinforces the sense that this process is moving in the right direction."
