A family of viruses has taken over the planet. It would seem that humanity has stepped forward so much that it could withstand such a merciless blow from the coronavirus, but alas, the cure for the disease is at the search stage, and the vaccine is at the development stage.
Is there a coronavirus in Kolomna
The inconspicuous infection of one person from China's multi-million population in December 2019, today, has increased the scale of the disaster. Many countries have become hostages of covid-19 called coronavirus. It affects everyone - children, adults and even animals. The etiology of the virus is not exactly known. There is an assumption that this is a collection of 37 strains of viruses invented back in 1965.
The disease is transmitted by airborne droplets or contact. Symptoms of the disease, after infection, may be absent for up to 30 days, while the virus will stick into the body with tenacious "paws".
According to operational data, Kolomna has become a haven for a number of viruses. Today, there are 9 cases of coronavirus infection in Kolomna. More than 200 people were affected throughout the Moscow region.
Unfortunately, most people neglect the advice of specialists and do not seek qualified help until the last moment, even if there is no medicine, it is important that the patient is under observation. The disease is dangerous because it has in its combination four very dangerous subspecies of the strain, which give complications both to the gastrointestinal tract and completely inhibit all human vital systems. The rapid course of the disease leaves no chance for anyone if you do not track the dynamics of the progression of the disease.
It is important to note the fact that antibiotics are powerless in the fight against the virus, since the coronavirus is not bacterial. They cannot be a prophylactic, but only depress the immune system.
It is also not recommended to use folk remedies such as honey, alcohol, garlic or onions as a prophylaxis. These methods have nothing to do with prevention.
In order to protect the inhabitants of the country and the townspeople, quarantine measures were taken that introduce restrictions. In particular, the restrictions apply to the suspension of entertainment centers and establishments, beauty salons, bars, restaurants, performances and concerts, etc.
Stopped enterprises and firms that are not engaged in providing the population with essential goods and services.
Such an approach will contribute to the inhibition of a sharp surge in patients.
In order not to get infected, we recommend:
- Refrain from visiting crowded places, public transport.
- Do not touch the skin and mucous membranes.
- Stay away from those with severe symptoms of the disease.
- Wash hands thoroughly with soap and disinfectants.
- Handle personal items.
- If there is a need to go to work, do not forget about the distance, maintain the recommended temperature regime, ventilate the premises and carry out disinfection measures.
- Do not greet with a handshake or a close hug.
- Use personal hygiene products.
How long will quarantine last in the city
The World Health Organization has declared a state of emergency due to the coronavirus pandemic. Most countries also followed this - they introduced quarantine in countries, limited air and rail traffic. Restricted movement between city flights, public transport. Kolomna was no exception. The state quarantine here began on March 30, 2020 and will be canceled by order.
Quarantine has been introduced in Kolomna schools, kindergartens and universities, municipal and state institutions.
The situation with tests and beds in Kolomna due to coronavirus
Coronavirus in Kolomna has made a lot of noise, as residents fear that there is a lack of protective equipment, devices and drugs in medical institutions.
According to operational data, at least 75 beds for the infected have been prepared in Kolomna. Hospitals are bracing for a surge in cases.
Regarding the tests, they are carried out in the usual way, that is, if there are symptoms and indications for conducting, each patient is guaranteed such a test. Also, a person independently has the opportunity to take the test in any clinic.
It is important to know that now domestic manufacturers have begun to develop their express systems for detecting the virus in human blood. According to the experience of foreign colleagues, the approach with rapid tests allows you to quickly assess the condition of a person and weed him out for quarantine.
Test processing is almost continuous, as the number of requests is very large. Laboratories work around the clock.
In order to donate biological material, you must meet the criteria of Rospotrebnadzor, in particular:
- The test is passed by those who visited foreign countries.
- Patients with pneumonia.
- Healthcare workers who are at high risk of infection.
- People over 65 who have severe symptoms of SARS.
- Those who had contact with an infected person.
You can take an analysis in Kolomna or clarify information regarding this on the hotline 8 800 550 50 30.
It is important to know that the picture of the disease is:
- Elevated temperature.
- Cough, hard and dry.
- Acute muscle pain.
- Weakness and shortness of breath.
However, these are generalized symptoms. It has been proven that those with good immunity may have no signs of infection at all, but are still dangerous, until the disease begins to progress. The infection is transmitted from a sick person to a healthy person, by airborne droplets or through household contact.
You can take an analysis today in Kolomna in the only base - the Kolomna Central District Hospital. For anyone with a referral from a doctor, the service is free. The sampling of material for research is carried out by the attending physician at home or in a hospital.
