You are 5 times more likely to get coronavirus here, study
You probably think this place was a safe refuge from Covid-19.
In all pandemic coronavirus, people have demarcated areas of the country on the basis ofHow "safe" they areWill you in other words, how common the coronavirus is and how badly it spreads. And while the experts told us that quarantine at home is safer than going out in the world, a recent study published by the disease control and prevention centers (CDC) seems to suggest otherwise. In fact, the CDC sayspeople are five times more likely toContract coronavirus at home that they are in public.
The study, conducted by South Korean epidemiologists, examined 5,706"index"-Quis first identified to be infected with the virus-and 59,073 people who came into contact with them between the 20 Janiers and March 27th. According to the study, 11.8% of "household contacts" (those who lived with an infected person) had COVID-19, while the same thing was true for only 1.9% of "non-house contacts" ( those who do not have it).
As indicated byReuters, the study also found that "only two out of 100 people [2%] infected took the virus of non-household contacts, while one out of 10 [10%] hadcontracted the disease of their own families. "It means that the transmission of someone from your household is five times more likely.
The authors of the study suspect that this may be due to the fact that "individual protective measures andsocial distancing"-Chings proven as effective methods of propagation - is less common when people are at home.
A May study conducted in Bejing, China, published byBMJ GLOBAL HEALTH, supports the idea that people are more likely to get coronavirus at home, indicating, most of the person's transmission to anyone from Sars-COV-2, the coronavirus responsible forCovid-19 infection, occurred in families. "

In addition, the new CDC study outside South Korea revealed that the rate of home infection was highest when unless otherwisebetween 10 and 19 years, which is an important consideration in the discussion surrounding theReopening schools in the United States. "The role of the transmission of SARS-COV-2 households in the midst of the reopening of schools and the relaxation of social distance stresses the need for a time sensitive epidemiological study to guide public health policy", concluded the authors of the study.
