Genome Center: WHO warns ready to ask for cooperation from all countries Expected new strains of covids – hybrids emerge after “Omicron” is calm but immune from vaccines and infection will help reduce the impact
Date 15 Mar. 65 Genome Medical Center Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital Post a message via Facebook “Center for Medical Genomics” states that the World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a warning and asks for cooperation from all countries around the world on March 10, 65 as follows:
1. Please do not reduce the number of tests (ATK, RT-PCR and viral genomic transcription) during this period, as this will prevent us from being able to catch the new mutant virus. As a result, planning for the monitoring, prevention and treatment of the WHO mutated coronavirus 2019 was delayed in time for the incident.
2. Take care of the elderly and high-risk groups (608) to receive complete vaccinations. especially in Southeast Asian countries, where, despite having enough vaccines, But it appears that some population groups, especially the elderly and at-risk groups (608), are not fully vaccinated.
The WHO has set a goal of vaccination for at least 70 percent of all people in all countries.
3. The WHO estimates that new species and recombinant variants will emerge after the omikron settles. But with the immunity we have accumulated both from vaccines and from natural infections. will help reduce the impact
4. Getting rid of the virus is not an easy task. So far, there is only one virus that can cause smallpox (Smallpox) caused by Variola Virus (Variola Virus) that is transmitted through close contact with the patient. or inhaling the virus in the patient’s phlegm, snot, or saliva And another near-successful eradication of the virus is polio (Polio or Poliomyelitis or Infantile paralysis), sometimes called polio. “Encephalitis” is a disease caused by infection with the polio virus.
5. The term endemic, the WHO states, does not mean that the pathogen has to end the epidemic or disappear, as is the case with HIV that causes AIDS. microbacteria tuberculosis causing pulmonary tuberculosis and the malaria parasite that causes malarial It is now regarded as an endemic disease. But these three infections are still responsible for millions of deaths worldwide each year. Each country must have strict and ongoing control measures to prevent these infections from returning to the pandemic.
Note the case of HIV infection that causes AIDS. Originally a worldwide epidemic (Pandemic) since 1981, now it has become an endemic disease (Endemic). Finally, Thailand requires a budget of 3 billion baht per year to diagnose CD4, viral load, and genetic decoding to see if the virus is resistant to antiviral drugs. and can adjust the drug if the infection is resistant to the drug in a timely manner as well as procuring antiviral drugs to use We humans have made behavioral modifications to coexist with HIV, such as using condoms when having sex with high-risk groups. or screening the blood to be free of various microorganisms including HIV before giving to patients who need blood, etc.
Therefore, in the case of the 2019 coronavirus that the government will adjust to endemic soon It is expected that Thai people will have to change many behaviors to coexist with this virus.
