Although the finish line is far, interim results confirm the test of the “crown” of Russia stands better than most. In Brazil during the last day, almost 16 thousand new cases, 653 the death, and the total number of victims approaching 23 thousand. In new York the peak is passed, but in the United States plus 20 thousand new cases and 653 deaths in a day. We did not have this on peak days. We managed to avoid the horror when sick was not enough room in hospitals and they died at home, not getting help. In Russia, a week the incidence is gradually declining, although the absolute level of 8.5 thousand for may 25 remains high.
And deaths we have over the last day too much – 92. Moreover, doctors openly say that the coming weeks will be difficult – in hospitals on a ventilator is a lot of critically ill patients, the consequences of the April peak, and will be able to save not all. The total mortality rate, i.e. the ratio of the number of deaths to the total number of people with confirmed diagnosis in Russia is the lowest – about seven times below the world average.
“the Authorities are evil, the number of deaths is underestimated,” like assessed the situation as some foreign publications. Although the validity of the estimates presented our country, confirmed in the who. The representative of who in Russia, Melita Vujnović confirmed that there is no reason to doubt the data, since the calculations we make in strict accordance with international guidelines.
city authorities have decided not to gloss over sensitive issues. Chapter destava of Moscow Alexey Khripun has published a response to the “new York times”, stating that authorities are confident in the accuracy of the data. The increase in mortality during the course of the epidemic, as infection leads to complications in chronic patients. By the way, the statistics that represent other countries, it is exactly the same: the number of deaths from COVID-19 less than the overall increase in mortality.
Why do we have better? To some extent, Russia was lucky – the wave of the COVID is upon us and a half-two months later than Europe and the United States. But lucky for those who “drove” itself: the border with China Russia closed first.
Won the time allowed to regroup in Moscow redeveloped the new complex in Kommunarka, was released under the “crown” of other offices. In the regions, albeit on a smaller scale, the same occurred. Several hospitals built by the military. Patients as a result of getting help.
the Second point: the early isolation of the elderly. In Italy, where rigid quarantine was late, or in Sweden, where from a total quarantine declined, the outbreaks were in nursing homes. And the high level of mortality among the elderly. We often affects people of working age. They are coping with a serious illness much better.
the Third point: in Russia, a record number of completed tests – almost 9 million Half viewltary – people without symptoms. But in the calculation of mortality “involved” all.
But that’s really who you need to worship is the doctors. Faced with new, strange infection, doctors were able to quickly “sift” the poor Chinese and Italian experience and to develop their own treatment regimen. And the doctors all this time, conduct a video conference with colleagues from the regions. Share the latest observations and experience in social networks – help to survive the invasion of the “crown” across the country. And now doctors say that, even without specific “protivomoskitnykh” drugs learned to cure even severe.
