It is when the coronavirus is the most contagious
The most dangerous part of Covid-19 could be when it is most likely to propagate, a new study finds.
The very contagious nature of COVID-19 has been one of the reasons why the virus has grown in a full-growing pandemic. Coronavirus has the capacity ofair, on the surfaces, andBy contact with others-And still worse, in many cases people can propagate the virus for days or weeksWithout even showing symptoms. But a recent study broke out exactly when those with COVID-19 are the most contagious - and the results are alarming. It proves,theHighest transmission period is two to three daysbefore You show symptoms.
The study, published in the newspaperMedicine of nature, was led by researchers outside theWorld Health Organization Collaborative Center for Epidemiology and Infectious Disease Control in China. In their research, they found that patients areMore likely to spread COVID-19 Up to 72 hours before showing signs of having contracted the virus. This is part of the reason why coronavirus is so difficult to follow and control before large epidemics develop in communities.
The study also compares the most contagious periods of COVID-19 to other diseases. TypicalSeasonal Influenza Patients are the most contagious one dayafter The appearance of symptoms, while the coronavirus responsible for 2003 SARS epidemic peaksa full 10 days after The symptoms begin. This, partly, explains the increased probability of novelCoronavirus patients spreading the diseaseespecially in those they live or work with.
The authors of the study say that, on the basis of their conclusions, they suggest a change of the wayControl measures of the CVIVID epidemic-19 are developed and executed. Countries such as Germany have paved the way for the use of preventive measures such asTrack contacts Smartphone applications To alert anyone who has been exposed to Coronavirus. Of course, disease control and prevention centers (CDC) maintain that the easiest approach is simply practicing social distance, wearing a facial mask and washing their hands.
