Nasayod na kita sa tubag niini, apan ania kining gikan sa Department of Health (DOH) pinaagi sa Internet: “ Last 31 December 2019, a clustering of pneumonia cases of unknown etiology in Wuhan, China was reported to the WHO Country Office. The outbreak was later determined to be caused by a new coronavirus strain that has not been previously identified in humans.”
Nasayod na kita niini. Apan, niay dugang kasayoran gikan sa WHO, atong kutloon sa Eningles aron di ta masayop: “There is no confirmed timeline how long a COVID-19 virus survives in surfaces. However, most likely it behaves like other coronaviruses. Studies show that coronaviruses can survive on surfaces for a few hours up to several days depending on varied conditions (e.g. type of surface, temperature or humidity of the environment.”
Unsaon pag-spread sa COVID-19? Tubag: “COVID-19 is transmitted from person to person via droplets, contact, and fomites. It is transmitted when one individual talks, sneezes, or coughs producing ‘droplets’ of saliva containing the COVID-19 virus. These droplets are then inhaled by another person. COVID-19 transmission usually occurs among close contacts -- including family members and healthcare workers. It is therefore important to maintain a distance of more than 1 meter away from any person who has respiratory symptoms”
Klaro, di kinahanglan hubraron, in fact ato na man kining gi-practice. Sa usa ka editorial, giulohan Coping with COVID Crisis, na-published sa Internet niagi pang tuig, apan alang nako,relevant gihapon karong panahona.
Matud pa, ang unang pag-spread sa sa virus didto mahitabo sa India, ug na-confirmed sa niaging Enero 2020. Ug sukad niadto: “ Ever since, our lives have changed and we are facing numerous difficulties.” Mao na kini ang atong nasinati karon, puno sa kalisdanan, diin wala kitay kasayoran kanus-a kini kutob.
Ug ang coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19, “has created a havoc, kaguliyang) in the world ever since it was declared as a pandemic by WHO.” Grabe no?
Gawas sa panglawas sa katawhan sa tibuok kalibotan ang dakong naapektohan sa pandemic mao ang ekonomiya. Nasayod na kita niini, kay dinhi sa ato, daghang balay-patigayon nanira ug daghan usab ang nawad-an og trabaho. Napugngan ang atong panglhuklihok ug kitang mga senior citizens gidid-an paggawas gikan sa atong mga panimalay.
Molingi ta makadiyot kapin sa usa ka gatus ka tuig nga milabaY: “The world faced a huge health and wealth wise setback a hundred years ago in 1918–1919 because of a Spanish flu pandemic! This crisis lasted for almost one and half years as the then government took long to understand the right steps to recover from the crisis.”
So, sa mga tuig 1918-1919, gihapak kita og laing sakit, ang Spanish flu pandemic nga gisundan sa Great Recession sa tuig 1929. Hinuon karon, “with that experience and history, governments today are better equipped to cope up with current economic recession. Also in this era of much advanced technology and economics knowledge, recovery from economic and health crisis may be faster than last century. There is always a silver line on the dark clouds”
Makaginhawa ta’g gamay.
