Patients with the new corona virus who do not have symptoms are less likely to show signs of code 19. This was revealed in a medical study in Japan.
Research from Fujita Health University found that asymptomatic patients with corona virus usually recover within 9 days of being diagnosed with the disease.
The Japanese researchers looked at data from people infected with the corona virus in a diamond cruise ship that confirmed the corona virus but showed no symptoms, and only 11 people later showed symptoms.
The results of the new study were published in the medical journal Neva England Journal of Medicine, and researchers said that the majority of asymptomatic patients did not show any signs of illness.
The results show that in about 50% of such people, the virus clears within 9 days, while 90% of patients recover in 15 days.
The study also found that most patients are unlikely to recover within 5 days of initial confirmation.
Japanese researchers estimate that in an environment where the corona virus could easily spread, the number of asymptomatic patients could potentially be equal to the number of people with symptoms.
“The results show that it is pointless to do repeated tests after diagnosis because the results remain the same and resources are not used properly,” he said.
Following the findings of the study, the Japanese Ministry of Health on Friday revised its guidelines for patients undergoing code 19 at the hospital and now directed that patients who have tested negative twice in six days be discharged. ۔
The researchers said the study looked at 128 patients on the Diamond Princess cruise ship, 96 of whom tested positive for the virus but showed no symptoms, of whom 90 had data available for analysis. ۔
A total of more than 700 people on board were confirmed to have the corona virus.
The researchers explained that the 11 patients who showed symptoms were in the pre-asymptomatic stage, not completely asymptomatic.
This research comes at a time when the transmission of the virus from such patients to other people has become a topic of discussion.
“We do not yet know exactly how many asymptomatic patients can transmit the virus,” said the Japanese researcher.
The World Health Organization (WHO) was criticized by medical experts around the world last week for stating that patients with code 19 who do not show code 19 symptoms are more likely to Few spread the virus.
During a routine press briefing on June 8, Maria Van Kirkov, a WHO official and epidemiologist, said: “It seems that asymptomatic patients carry the virus as if they were not. There are numerous reports from countries that have done very detailed work on contact tracing, they have tracked the cases of such patients, examined their acquaintances and they have not been able to detect virus transmission, otherwise Is equal to
The statement drew strong reactions on June 9 from doctors, journalists, epidemiologists around the world, and on social media, so much so that the World Health Organization live-streamed the question and answer on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. He issued an explanation on this statement.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that this was not a mistake, but that the word asymptomatic, used for asymptomatic patients, is misinterpreted to include people who do not have symptoms or people who are ill. Intensity is very mild.
The World Health Organization (WHO) said research on the corona virus was progressing rapidly and that the statement was about a small number of research reports and data sets, not all coronavirus patients. , Which have not yet been researched.
“I used very few phrases and I think there was a misunderstanding that the rate of transmission of the virus by asymptomatic patients around the world is almost non-existent,” Maria Van said on Tuesday. Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either.
“It happens, I believe it does happen, but the question is to what extent,” said Mike Ryan, executive director of WHO Health Emergencies.
It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post. The number of patients without symptoms can be as high as 40, according to the WHO.
One of the confusions about this aspect is that many people are very contagious and can easily spread the virus to others, even before they know they have the disease.
They do this before the symptoms of the disease appear, which is a cause for concern because these people may show clear symptoms of the disease in a few days, but at first they do not feel sick and therefore their Viruses keep spreading around.
According to Mike Ryan, “It means you’re in a restaurant and you’re healthy.”
If you are feeling sleepy and the fever starts, you don’t think of staying at home, but this is the moment when the viral load is very high, that is, the disease can spread at that moment and the disease is very contagious, that’s it. That’s because the virus is spreading so fast around the world. ”
“Many coronavirus patients are not completely immune to the symptoms, but the severity of the disease is very low,” said Maria Vaughan. No, because such people feel a little sick but not sick enough to be sure of the virus.
“When we say asymptomatic, we mean a person who has no symptoms, no symptoms of any kind,” he said.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that the spread of the virus can be prevented only by social distance, hand hygiene, avoiding touching one’s face and tracing patients with symptoms.
“It’s possible to stop the virus, it’s not contagious enough to stop it,” said Mike Ryan.
