80% of coronavirus cases can be found on this one thing
New research shows what can broadcast coronavirus at a higher rate than anything else.
As hottest weather and states are starting to hang on earlier restrictions, some people are looking forward to seeing friends and family face to face. However, the truth is, theCoronavirus is still spreading- These meetings of many people hope to attend the worst offenders with respect to CVIV-19 transmission and contracting. Yes, according to new research, 80% of coronavirus cases can be found to one thing:"Super-spreader" events.
A coronavirus "super-spreader" is an incident during which a person with COVID-19 infects an exceptionally high number of people. After applying a mathematical model to COVID-19 epidemics outside China, researchers from the London School of Hygiene and tropical medicine and the Alan Turing Institute estimated that nearly 80% of all secondary transmissions "may have beencaused by a small fraction of infectious individuals (less than 10%) "- AKA Super-spreaders.
It issimilar to many other infectious diseases-But like HIV, measles and ebola virus - which generally follow a rule of 20/80, where 80% of cases are caused to 20% of people.
"As the most infected people do not contribute to the expansion of an epidemic, the effective reproduction number could be significantly reduced by preventing relatively rare supervision events," says researchers in their conclusions, published in the newspaper .Nature. They add that "the characteristics of identification of parameters that can cause an area will play a key role in the design of effective control strategies".
One of the first advertising supervest was a choral practice in Mount Vernon, Washington, early March.Educated to 52 of the 61 contracting participants COVID-19. Two even deaths following the virus.
However, there are other similar events that can cause cases of coronaviruses to multiply, such as birthday parties, funerals, weddings, religious services and Potluck dinners. ThoseHigh-risk events have been linked to many epidemics of coronavirus throughout the country.
According to disease control and prevention centers (CDC), the fact that mostCases of coronavirus are related to some super-spreaders stresses the importance of social distancing recommendations. That's why the CDC says you should try to practice "physical distancing, avoiding group gatherings and congested places and wearFabric coatings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain "to help control the propagation of COVID-19. And for more than where a large number of COVID-19 cases follows from, discoverIt is who transmits 40% of cases of coronaviruses, says CDC.
