Third wave of coronavirus pandemic will be even tougher, scientists say
The third wave of your pandemic coronavirus that will be even more difficult for the experts to fear. We can be in the most critical week and the government, within the week, announces, as everything indicates, an extension emergency shutdownas hospitals across the country are full of intubated, but experts have started talking about the third wave of their pandemic coronavirus, which, they estimate, will come later Christmas.
“Obviously there will be a third wave of coronavirus”, evaluated the professor of Environmental Engineering of the Polytechnic School of the AUTh, Demosthenes Sarigiannis. As the professor explained, there will be a continuation of the wave of the pandemic, which we are in, obviously and perhaps we will immediately see its interception but it will not be so great as to avoid a third. In fact, the third wave may be more difficult. ” Sarigiannis characteristically asserted, citing as an example of difficulty how this wave will be handled. According to the professor, clearly if we are not careful we can see worse indicators in cases, intubation and deaths, so our attitude will play a catalytic role in how a third wave will eventually develop. Next to, It should be mentioned that, in the opinion of Mr. Sarigiannis, an extension of the confinement is not improbable, which can last up to three weeks.
Peacock: third wave of the pandemic after Christmas
Speaking to SKAI early Monday, Ms Pagoni specifically stated: “We have many cases and more than 3,000 patients, while intubated and the deceased they are constantly growing. The third wave will come later Christmas and it may be more difficult and we are still discussing why we don’t have to say goodbye at christmas“, He characteristically stated. According to the president of the hospital doctors, there is a stabilization of cases and from next week there should be a gradual reduction, however we are far from the goal of 500 cases per day.” We will see a decrease next week, but only in cases and not in other indicators, in patients and deaths. With the data we have now, the lock will have an extension of one week for sure. The measures should have been taken a little earlier and, especially in Thessaloniki, the blockade should have been imposed in October, “added Ms Pagoni.
In terms of market opening The president of EINAP expressed the estimate that it will definitely get a one-week extension, but even so, that is, on December 7, the cases will be around 2,000 and maybe a little less. However, he noted that until Christmas there is room to be limited to 500, a number that can allow travel from county to county at Christmas. “If by then there is a large reduction in cases, there is a possibility that travel will be allowed.” To be sure, the cases should drop to 500 cases, “he said. Regarding the number of patients, which is about 3,000, he highlighted that 5% of them are intubated. In fact, he added, young people between the ages of 18 and 20 are currently being treated.
Sypsas: rolling lock until spring
The possibility of its elimination is definitely ruled out emergency shutdown on November 30 according to the infectious disease specialist Nikos Sypsa. The EKPA Athens School of Medicine professor clarified that survey of measurements will be done when coverage in ICU it will be below 60% -70%.
“It just came to our knowledge then cases. This flattening takes five days, so we are optimistic that we will see a downward trend. If he cases fall below a thousand, at least, and ideally 500, there will be a period of one to two weeks in which the pandemic will continue to produce intubation and sadly victims. When this period is over, then we could talk about lifting measures. “The only factor that will lead us to think about lifting measures is the health system, when there will not be so much pressure and ICU coverage will be below 60% -70%,” he told ANT1.
Mr. Sypsas claims that on November 30, the cases will not have occurred. “You have to forget November 30. Definitely, the cases will not have gone down either. We are talking about December now. How deep in December, how close we will be to the holidays, this is unknown. The numbers are limited to reach the holidays and have some economic activity. This is a good scenario because the pandemic is unpredictable. We are on a plateau, we hope that the next step will be down. “
For spring, he says, we will go with rolling lock. “The suffering we had in October will become a lesson for the next steps. Until spring, the partial opening of society and the economy will be accompanied by new measures
when it is considered necessary and we will go to what is called a rolling lockdown, this is my personal opinion, so I think we will go until spring, “he said.
WHO “sees” the third wave of the coronavirus pandemic
Your specialist World Health Organization on the coronavirus predicted on Sunday, November 22, a third wave of the pandemic in Europe in early 2021 if the failure, according to him, of governments to do what is necessary to prevent the second wave is repeated.
“They lost the opportunity to build the necessary infrastructure during the summer months, after controlling the first wave of the epidemic. coronavirushe said in an interview with Swiss newspapers David nabarro. “Now we have the second wave. If they don’t create the necessary infrastructure, we will have a third wave early next year“Nabarro pointed out.
In Europe there has been a recession from the coronavirus pandemic for a short time while now there is an uptrend again: H Germany and the France I saw the cases of the young man coronavirus to increase for both together by 33,000, the Switzerland and the Austria register thousands of daily cases, while Turkey registered a record of 5,532 new cases.
Nabaro pointed to Switzerland’s move to allow skiing, with the use of a cable car mask, while other alpine states such as Austria closed ski resorts, noting that Switzerland could reach “a very high level of illness and death.” ». “When infection rates go down, and they will fall, then we can be as free as we want,” he said, according to a statement quoted by Solothurner Zeitung. “But now; should the ski resorts be open? Under what conditions?” He continued.
Nabaro praised the reaction of Asian countries like South Korea, where the number of new coronavirus cases is now relatively low: “People are totally engaged, adopting behaviors that hinder the virus. They keep their distance, wear masks, isolate themselves when sick, wash their hands and surfaces. They protect the most vulnerable groups. “
Nabarro also noted that Asia did not prematurely relax restrictive measures. “You have to wait until the number of cases is low and remains low,” he said.Europe’s reaction was incomplete».
