Associate Prof. Mangarov. Staff Bulgaria on air
Two of Assistant Professor Atanas Mangarov’s children are infected with a coronavirus, he himself told Bulgaria On Air. As is known, he has three sons and a daughter. Mangarov added that every day one of us is in contact with an infected person.
There is no second wave of Kovid-19, and what has been happening in recent weeks is the natural course of the epidemic. In the summer there was a sharp reduction in cases, as the disease is not very fatal. This is the opinion of the infectious disease specialist.
“The coronaviruses in 2003 and 2012 were much more lethal. So far, with this Kovid-19, the mortality rate is around 0.3%, quite low. During the cold months, we see a natural course of the epidemic. It will arrive while 70% of the people do not “We went through this virus. 30-40% of the population is infected at this time. The entire population should have found the virus in about 2-3 months, “he explained.
He highlighted that in Kovid-19 80% of the cases are asymptomatic. Only about 20 percent of the cases were symptomatic and only 2-3% of them required hospital treatment.
“There is no definitive treatment for Kovid-19. Azithromycin is prescribed to anyone who calls and says it is positive. I don’t understand why this is done. People and doctors must be informed. Kovid is an acute viral infection. “The acute phase is 13 to 15 days. Antibiotics don’t help! It is a self-limiting disease, “said the director of the Kovid Clinic at the Hospital for Infectious Diseases.
Associate Professor Atanas Mangarov is of the opinion that unnecessary tension is being imposed, leading to the fact that hospitals are overcrowded and on the verge of being blocked. And he believes that most of those infected should be treated at home, not in hospitals.
“Everyone goes to the hospital because there is no one to treat them at home. When someone has symptoms and calls their GP, they say: Go and get tested. When that person tests positive, they quarantine them at home. Yes. his GP examined him, found contact and entered the spiral – this is absurd, GPs must follow all precautions, not everyone can enter hospitals and close floors just for Kovid-19. Most of these people can be treated at home. The GP can also go home, “explained the infectious disease specialist.
“It’s okay for these people to go see their doctor. They were contagious 3-4 days before their symptoms. They do tests 1-2 days after that. 5-6 days these people walk around and then we close them, as if there was nothing past until then. These measures are absurd “, Prof. Assoc. Mangarov is categorical.
According to him, the system is very busy, but a way must be found so that the seriously ill can receive help. He is convinced that the ways we are trying to fight this airborne infection are not realistic.
