Cecília Müller also warned about domestic practices at a press conference with operational staff on Tuesday. The national medical director said that in the last 24 hours the new coronavirus infection (Covid-19) had been detected in 851 new Hungarian citizens, thus increasing the number of infected people in Hungary to 25,567. Eight patients have died, the youngest of whom is a man in his 60s, and there are more than 19,000 active cases.
The chief physician spoke about the dynamics of the epidemic at a press conference of the operating tribunal on Tuesday. As he said, the goal of the first wave was to flatten the epidemic so that fewer patients would suddenly rush to medical care. In the second wave, however, the community virus must be prevented. To do this, the chief doctor described how the dynamics of the virus would develop from the summer, that is, around week 32.
At week 32, the number of patients was lower and then began a gradual increase. A 35-36. week, the number of positive cases tripled, and from week 36 to week 37, the number of coronavirus infections increased 1.5 times. At week 38, the number of positive cases increased by a third, and at week 39, the increase was much more moderate. Cecília Müller emphasized that it is a positive phenomenon, because although the reproduction rate was around 2 in the first weeks, now it is close to 1. According to the medical director, this means that a positive person has been able to transmit the disease to a person in recent weeks.
Cecília Müller explained that around a quarter, almost 25 percent, of the new cases registered are still in the age group of 20 to 29 years, more broadly, the group of 30 to 65 years is 43 percent and only 15 percent are over 65. The proportion of people under the age of 14 is extremely small, with few children affected by positivity: at the moment, the number of childhood infections is around 4 percent.
The medical director emphasized that many people are in official home quarantine, it is not an easy situation for families now, it is mentally difficult to bear the impediment. It details how to do it if a relative is in quarantine: if you do not have the opportunity to be isolated, take good care of your relatives and relatives. Wear a mask when you leave your room, do not receive visitors, do not wake up more contacts.
If a family is infected with a coronavirus, every effort should be made to ensure that other family members do not become infected. Very unpleasant, uncomfortable condition, a burden to all. In this way, on the other hand, we can protect each other, let’s not use common household utensils, I suggest that we also collect clothes separately, have separate towels, collect garbage separately, and have enough disinfectant at home. The virus is sensitive to chlorine-containing disinfectants and can be killed with hypo water.
