After the meeting of the Scientific Committee of the Coronavirus, which started today at 5:00 p.m., Health Minister Fahrettin Koca made a statement.
Husband, ” We have achieved a decrease of about half, if we think that there are 2 months before us for vaccination, the end of the tunnel appeared. There have been some words that have entered our lives with the epidemic. We are no longer talking about waves and spikes, but about treatment and immunity. Now we talk about more carriers, patients, seriously ill. Not all cases are sick. Because there are those who do not have any symptoms even if their test is positive. These are the vast majority. Our radiation equipment predominantly detects them. The importance of these in terms of the epidemic is that they are contagious, that is, carriers. ”
‘RESPECT OUR RECORDS’
Saying there are interesting claims about death numbers, Koca said: “I appeal to those who are expected to win a debate on this issue, if they are looking for a numerical victory, please do not violate the spirit, respect our records. Where are the scorers, trying to show high numbers? The number of burial sites in our e-government database is one of the Turkish municipalities Instution other statistics. It is wrong to use two separate databases together. Categorical information in death reports is misinterpreted. The form used in the declaration of death is not new. It has been used since 2013. The form of death in this document is the other. The purpose of the death mode is to provide the following information; Is the person who died, for example, a criminal case such as an armed attack or a normal death? The answer to this question is natural death or death as a result of a criminal case. To explain natural death from disease, the term contagious or non-communicable disease has been added to this household. ”
‘THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS IN ANKARA HAS DECREASED BY HALF’
Husband, “” We booked a week for Istanbul. We had the opportunity to discuss the infrastructure and health activities of our 23 provinces in total. At our meeting 2 weeks ago, I evaluated Ankara and said that the increase in the number was high. This increase was a situation that affected many regions of Anatolia. The most striking place was Ankara. The number of patients in Ankara has halved in the last 2 weeks. ”
‘I CAN’T STOP VACCINE-RELATED IMPROVEMENTS’
Husband, “” I can’t dwell on vaccine-related developments. I would like to emphasize that we have gone beyond testing. The countries we are in contact with report having obtained results with the vaccine. Our national vaccine studies continue. There are currently 13 studies. There are those who are on the cusp of starting Phase 1 experiments. I believe that very soon we will begin production of our own vaccine. For now, I want to remind you that our power is a measure. ”
INTENSIVE CARE AND BED FILLING RATE
Husband, “” Our weekly bed occupancy rate is 43.3 percent. Intensive care for adults 67.1 percent, ” he said.
CURRENT CORONAVIRUS DATA
Koca said: “Our total number of tests has exceeded 10 million. The number of patients is 318 thousand 663. The number of serious patients is 516 thousand, the number of patients in recovery is 279 thousand 749. This table shows the number of cases and the rate of pneumonia in particular. Here is a table showing the rate of pneumonia when it moves to the right and the number of patients when it increases. If it is located towards the lower left square, it shows that the rate of pneumonia and patients and the rate of cases decrease. We see an increase in the number of cases in approximately 10-12 provinces. I can say that these are Elazığ, Adıyaman and Malatya. ”
ISTANBUL CASE RATE
Husband, ” the number of cases in Istanbul dropped by 2.8 percent. Our service bed occupancy rate is 51.1 percent, our intensive care occupancy rate is 61.3 percent. Here, I want to say in particular, we are talking about the occupancy rate of all patients, except for Covid patients, whose occupancy rates we have mentioned. ”
DECLARATION OF ANKARA, İZMİR, KONYA
Koca said: “The low number of cases in Ankara shows the last week. Compared to three weeks ago, the decrease is 60 percent. The number of cases fell 26 percent in Izmir. The number of cases in Konya has dropped by 43.5 percent in the last 10 days. In 20 days, the number of cases in Konya dropped to a quarter. ”
INTELLIGENT BRACELET
Responding to journalists’ questions, Koca said: “Two weeks ago I mentioned especially smart bracelets. We are not in favor of using the application unless it is mandatory. But we are talking about the system that works on the smart bracelet by GPRS and gives a warning when it moves after a certain distance. Software has been created for this. In addition, a system that can be attached to a fixed place, it can be tracked if there is more than one person in the family for whom we can adjust the distance, which is defined, and when the distance is exceeded, a system has been worked that it is activated with an alert system. I am in favor of the following application, we think it should apply to non-isolated people who do not want to be isolated at home and who are concerned about being isolated at home. ”
COMMUNITY IMMUNITY
It had been a study in Turkey with a population immunity husband, he said, ‘antibody immunity, as well as the PCR method. 0.28 carrier, 0.82 percent protection, immunity was in question. More than 2 months have passed. We decided to repeat this study. It will probably start next week. How about the carrier? We want to see the immune status and the difference, ” he said.
PLAY GAMES WITH A PASSENGER
Koca said: “We had a suggestion before, especially in the period of the epidemic, to play with the audience. For now, this topic was not on the agenda during this period of the epidemic. According to the course of the epidemic next week, we can start from the shelters. ”
