Could there be a second wave of corona virus Experts said
London (Pak News) While restrictions on the prevention of corona virus are being eased in several countries around the world, there is also a focus on whether a second wave of the epidemic could occur.
Experts fear that if care is not taken, another wave could follow.
Experts are also focusing on how to avoid a second wave.
"History warns us to be vigilant in this regard," a BBC report said. In the Middle Ages, the plague of the Black Death came intermittently, and so did the bubonic plague.
One hundred years ago, the Spanish flu wreaked havoc on the world, and the second wave of the epidemic is said to have killed more people than the first.
There has been a lot of progress in the field of medicine compared to that time.
In the recent past, another wave of dangerous viruses, such as SARS and MERS, has been averted, but there has been another wave of epidemics such as swine flu. This situation means that no two viruses are the same.
But we know that infectious disease spreads only when infected people come in contact with other people.
According to experts, the epidemic will continue to spread when a single person infected with the virus continues to infect more than one person on average. This is called a reproductive or R number. It is very important to keep it below one.
Therefore, in the days to come, social distance and identification of victims will be the most important part of our lives. We also need to know how long the immune system of people suffering from COD 19 lasts. And how much weather conditions can play a role in the spread of the virus.
Experts are also looking at how the virus can become more or less dangerous by changing its form. It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post. The development of the vaccine may change, but if efforts to control the virus slow down, it could spread again.
It is estimated that more than 8.7 million people worldwide have been infected with Corona so far, while the death toll has exceeded 464,000.
The most affected country in the world is the United States with more than 2.2 million victims and more than 119,000 deaths.
Brazil is now the second deadliest country in the world, behind the United Kingdom.
The number of victims in Pakistan has exceeded one lakh 76 thousand, while according to official figures, the number of deaths is 3501. Sindh has the highest number of victims while Punjab has the highest number of deaths.
A second wave of Corona is feared in the Chinese capital, Beijing. A market and other areas have been temporarily sealed off from where the virus could spread.
Large-scale social sanctions have been lifted in Europe, while Australia's lockdown has been further eased.
