Along with the coronavirus cases that increase in September in Turkey, an increase in flu and cold cases is expected due to the seasonal transition. Department of Infectious Diseases and Clinical Microbiology of Dicle University and Covid-19 Intensive Care Coordinator Prof. Dr. Recep Tekin said that Covid-19, influenza and cold are infections caused by 3 different viruses and that influenza and Covid-19 in particular could explode. Noting that especially in September and October, the flu season also begins, Tekin said: “When we look at the basic differences between people, there are very close illnesses. Fever, braces, widespread pain, weakness and success are symptoms that can appear in both, except for Covid-19. “The main characteristic of the flu is the respiratory tract,” he said.
‘THIS SRETE PATIENTS WILL BE OK’
Emphasizing that the flu affects the respiratory tract more and Covid-19 falls more in the lungs, Prof. Dr. Tekin spoke with his words:
“Consequently, it can cause shortness of breath, discomfort and respiratory distress. It is very difficult to distinguish two of these symptoms by looking at the clinical findings or findings. However, we need laboratory tests to distinguish this. The fact that we must pay attention this is respiratory distress. If there is weakness, fatigue, a slight spasm, there may be the flu, there may be Covid-19, but if there is shortness of breath or respiratory distress, we must definitely investigate it for Covid-19. For this, we must do necessary tests and determine our treatment accordingly. The main difference here is that they pay special attention to the symptoms of respiratory distress. Not all fatigue has to be Covid-19. If you have these complaints and also respiratory distress, we will need to perform a test of Covid-19. is the only post-test.
‘MASK, DISTANCE AND HYGIENE’
Recalling that there is an increase in the number of cases after the normalization process, Prof. Dr. Tekin said the following:
It is necessary to redo some warnings. It is necessary to observe the necessary sensitivity of our people in this regard, especially in terms of masks, distance and hygiene, and observe the necessary precautions, to spread the virus and cause disease. Another important point is of course the isolation. People must be quarantined for 14 days in their homes. Unfortunately, our patients who are positive and need to stay at home can go to the narrow market of CP, cafes. This has wet sanctions, but we especially love our patients, this is a serious problem for the community. On the other hand, please wear our mask. Not only the mask, but also, let’s keep our distance and hygiene, especially after touching the surface, washing our hands and then continuing with our normal daily life ”.
