During the last days, the Corona accountant in Lebanon registered a notable decrease, since it maintained a daily number of injuries that ranged between 500 and 600, after having exceeded 700. However, this decrease has not reached a reassuring stage, “because the daily numbers are still considered very high,” according to Dr. Muhammad Haidar, adviser to the Minister of Health.

Haidar, in an interview with Asharq Al-Awsat, stated that Lebanon is currently “still in the dissemination phase”, as the percentage of positive results from the number of examinations sometimes exceeded 13 percent. He noted a number of negative indicators, including “the increase in the number of deaths, which exceeded the rate of 1 percent, and the closeness of most hospitals to their maximum capacity, as well as the high number of patients in Corona in intensive care rooms and respirators. “

In addition to these negative indicators, Haidar points to an additional dangerous indicator, which is the spread of the infection between members of the same family, which the Ministry is trying to contain through monitoring.

And he considered that what worsens the situation is that the citizens of many regions still do not adhere to the preventive measures required in terms of adherence to the muzzle, social distancing or non-miscegenation, noting that the ministry will carry out an assessment at the end of the week of the numbers and the results of the closure, to which many sectors have not adhered, to take advantage of The thing continues.

With the arrival of the fall season, fears increased that the epidemic would spread due to the transfer of most activities to closed places and the increased spread of respiratory viruses. It is expected to increase between late September and early October due to the mix of influenza and Corona.

Araji considered that “schools cannot carry out regular PCR exams for students and teachers, as happened in some Arab and Western countries.”
