Warns World Health Organisation: Young people 'not invincible', coronavirus

Young people are not immune to coronavirus and are at risk of serious illness or death as well as putting their elders in danger if they do not avoid socialising, the World Health Organisation has warned.

 

A “significant proportion” of patients treated in hospital for Covid-19 around the world were aged under 50, the WHO said, amid concern the gravity of the pandemic had not been grasped by many.

 

“Today, I have a message for young people: You are not invincible”, said the organisation’s director general, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

 

Speaking at a media briefing on Friday, he stressed: “This virus could put you in hospital for weeks, or even kill you.  Even if you don’t get sick, the choices you make about where you go could be the difference between life and death for someone else”.

 

More than 10,000 people worldwide have died of coronavirus since the outbreak began in China late last year. The number of cases globally has now topped 210,00, the WHO confirmed.

 

The elderly and people with underlying health conditions are most at risk of falling seriously ill with coronavirus.

 

But health chiefs in Italy, the worst affected country, have reported a growing number of younger patients requiring hospital treatment.

 

About 12 per cent of those who have been treated in intensive care in Italy are aged between 19 and 50, according to official figures released last week.

Calculator: Here's how long the toilet paper you bought from the stores will last

A clever developer has made a pilot project "Toilet Paper Calculator" and now you can accurately calculate how long the toilet paper you brought from your home store will last.

 

A general toilet paper brawl occurred after the coronavirus began to spread rapidly in the country and in countries in the region. So a clever programmer did a pilot project "Toilet Paper Calculator" and now you can accurately calculate how long the toilet paper you brought from your home store will last.

 

Let's say you're a family of four, so if you go to the toilet 20 times a day (and you probably don't go that often), and if you bought only two packs of toilet paper with 20 rolls (and probably bought more), that stock would last. 10 days. If, say, you go to the toilet 10 times a day, then the paper will last you 20 days.

Research Reporter Laboratory Macedonia-IRL: Out of 300 People Who Passed on Deve Bair, Only 9 Roma Are Taken to Group Quarantine

How does it end up in group quarantine, and as in home isolation, what does the procedure for determining who goes to the barracks and who at home look like. These are some of the questions the IRL has sent to the institutions, which have been waiting three days since the March 17 announcement of 200 returning citizens from the Deve Bair border crossing, with only nine Roma musicians taken into custody.

 

On March 17 and 18, more than 300 citizens entered the border crossing. The Macedonian Information Agency (MIA), citing official information from the Police Station for Border Checking and Border Surveillance Regional Center East, announced on March 17 and 18 a total of 300 citizens entered the state at the Deve Bair border crossing.

 

They all signed statements of self-isolation and were released home, no other person was placed in the group quarantine.

 

Following public complaints on social networks about the conditions at the Pepelishte Barracks where the only ten citizens were initially placed under quarantine, they are now in Demir Kapija in quarantine. Their question is one: Why only us?

 

At the Ministry of Health we asked who decides which citizen will be in self-isolation at home and who is in quarantine.

 

The Ministry of Health, in their short response, however, said it was decided by the state of health, but declined to answer what the state of health should be for someone to go into quarantine.

 

Journalists talking to the IRL said that the night the musicians arrived while waiting for the convoy, they saw many people crossing the border on foot and getting off the vans. Others crossed the border by car or van, but were released at home by written statements. The only convoys taken to the barracks in Pepelishte are the nine Roma musicians. After complaining about poor hygiene, they were transferred to the Rehabilitation Institute in Demir Kapija.

Research: Covid-19 is seen more as an economic threat than as a health risk

 

The public sees the coronavirus as a greater threat to the economy than their health, new research shows. The economic rescue measures of companies and jobs taken by governments do not alleviate such concerns.

 

The Ipsos survey of 10,000 adults interviewed in 12 countries and conducted from March 12-14 shows increased anxiety about personal financial exposure, including employment.

 

The World Economic Forum's website also reports on the results of the survey, which said perceptions of a health threat are rising near hotspots despite measures taken to prevent social isolation and travel bans around the world.

 

Most of those surveyed in the affected countries expect consequences for their personal finances due to the coronavirus pandemic, the survey results show. They are most concerned about Vietnam, China, India and Italy.

 

Concerns about jobs and business have grown rapidly since February, especially in Italy, France, the UK and the United States. In these countries, economic worries appear to have grown more than concerns about the level of threat from the virus.

 

Most countries, including those surveyed at hotspots, expect things to return to normal by June. However, the trajectory of the disease and confirmed cases suggest that this will not happen, Ipsos concludes.
