Hacettepe University School of Medicine, Head of the Department of Pediatric Infectious Diseases. Dr. Ceyhan, in Turkey, gave information on the formation of the expected duration of herd immunity.

‘IT MEANS THAT THE OUTBREAK WILL GO OFF’

Prof. Dr. Ceyhan had the following to say on the subject:

“* From what we understand from the discussions about the number of patients and the number of cases, although we do not know the exact number, our number of cases is above this. The WHO estimated that 750 million is more than 20 times the number of 35 million cases detected in the world. If these figures indicate that the number of cases in less time than we expected when we adapted to Turkey in Turkey have been infected, people develop herd immunity more than 20 times in less time.

* The development of social immunity means that the virus cannot be transmitted as much as before and the epidemic will gradually disappear. We think this can happen in 1-2 years, of course this depends on the number of cases, if we know the exact number of cases we can calculate it very well. “

‘THE MUTATION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED TO END THE VIRUS’

Stating that many mutations are reported every day, Prof. Dr. Ceyhan said that the mutation that would kill the virus has not yet developed. Prof. Dr. Ceyhan said: “We may have 1 or more effective vaccines for individual protection next year; However, it seems that it may take longer to become an application that may be sufficient for the world population and where everyone will be vaccinated, considering both the production capacity and the delivery conditions of these vaccines, due to mutation and social immunity.
