Speaking with Habertürk about the coronavirus epidemic, the president of the Association for Infectious Diseases, Prof. Dr. Mehmet Ceyhan said that fever measurements carried out in official institutions, airports, schools, cafe-restaurants do more harm than good. Prof. Dr. Mehmet Ceyhan said “it should never be done” about tidying up children in schools to measure temperature.
“Fever is seen in less than 10 percent of those who have it”
Prof. Dr. Ceyhan said: “The pandemic started in China. When it started in China, the Chinese published more data than they had. But how many people had no symptoms, they didn’t know enough about the treatment methods. And sadly, the results. Your publications still affect some things. It was said before that fever is seen in 70 percent of people, however, it was 70 percent of those who had symptoms, today we know that less than 10 percent of who have this disease have a fever, ”he said.
“WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THE MEASUREMENT OF CHARACTERISTICS”
Prof. Dr. Mehmet Ceyhan gave the following response: “The biggest reason for unnecessary is that you will not get infected unless they touch you, but for example, you go somewhere. You queue to measure the fever. At that time, you have to approach people. We do not recommend measuring fever when entering because very few people have a fever. If there is a fever, it does not mean Covid. We are now entering in the fall, respiratory tract infections have increased. For many other reasons, you are unnecessarily isolating people with fever, you don’t put them anywhere. no. “
THERMAL CHAMBERS CAN BE
Prof. Dr. Ceyhan said: “Thermal cameras can measure like in airports, they don’t do any harm, but if you wait, it’s risky if it brings people closer.”
