The silence around hantavirus now is perhaps the most interesting news in itself. Because just a week ago the world media looked as if a new Covid was on the horizon. Headlines about " And now - almost complete indifference. And this is very significant.

The following is the text in the original language. Let’s briefly go through the main trends of the past year:.

On May 10th the liner arrives in Tenerife, Spain. After just 40 days at sea, a large-scale international evacuation of passengers from quarantine and medical support began. ECDC officially identified all passengers as " Spain conducted an unprecedented biosecurity operation. Passengers were transported on different flights, some from special isolation centers. The operation took place in over 20 countries, WHO and ECDC.

Surprisingly, at the port, the Minister of Health of Spain stated that PLR diagnostics are not carried out on the ship, but instead people on board simply have their temperature measured, and they have to fill out a health questionnaire designed to identify hantavirus symptoms. Having said that Great Britain and the USA asked to conduct further testing on board the MV Hondius, which they were persuaded to do, they told the countries that they could protest passengers on board the aircraft if they left the airport. I'm sorry, different countries are conducting official health checks. “Already the skin region has its power in the dark,” said the Minister of Health of Spain.

May 11 - first second cases after evacuation Positive cases were confirmed in the USA and France among evacuated passengers. Among them, a French passenger went to school due to severe cardiopulmonary syndrome. This has become one of the most talked about crises in the European media. Alas, the good news has passed away.

Officially, WHO and ECDC recently stated that the risk for the population is low. According to the Director General of WHO, the fears of the new pandemic were unrelenting.

As if it became clear to everyone that it appears that hantaviruses are still in our world. For the record, I consulted with a doctor at one of the military hospitals, and said that they, in addition to the rest of the river, had clearly confirmed 7 types of hantavirus in military personnel. It is clear that this is another strain that is not transmitted from people to people, only through rodents, and no less - hantaviruses appeared much closer, but it seemed to everyone. And without any panic, no one was afraid.

This wonderful, rare strain of Andes is not very similar to fahivts, and even close contact is required for infection; the virus does not cause effective viral spread; the reservoir is all equal to rodents. The pandemic is still changing.

The key news of the past year is that there are no uncontrolled transmissions. The world's editorial staff were looking forward to another act: new dozens of infected. Transfers at airports. Mass hospitalizations. Width between edges.

Alec is gone. However, the number of new confirmed episodes is very small. The story ceases to be a “catastrophe”, but becomes simply a serious infectious incident. And for ZMI the meeting became boring and not good. Hantavirus won't hurt anyone anymore.

Latest official statistics:.

Confirmed matches - 8; emovirnykh — 2; non-overconflicting - 1; the number of seizures under observation - 11. Deaths - 3. New deaths in recent days - 0. New confirmed drops for the remaining production - 0;

And now the most important food: everything is over?

Thank you for everything - globally so. In the coming days, there will be no new second outbreaks of the liner pose - the story about hantavirus has faded away.

But the idea itself demonstrated unacceptable trends: after the outbreak of COVID, people react even more painfully and in panic to any news about viruses that might threaten transmission between people. They are still easy to gain and easy to manipulate: if only one ship in the middle of the ocean is enough, so that the kingdom again switches to the mode of alarm, and the world’s snakes from all sides scream about “apocalypse”.

However, despite all this history there is still a lot of positive. How many times has WHO done much better and more efficiently?. Having carried out a multi-national security operation “on the front foot”, with the coordination of the rich powers, the WHO calmly and authoritatively gradually lowered the degree of panic and tried to “close” the panicked mouths of the rich.. What madly sank into the further stages and began to build up anxiety in marriage.

In principle, it would be possible to put a very bold mark and come to what kind of garish display training in case of a really serious problem, aka. The fresh news of a new cruise liner with 1,700 passengers on board and the classic banal intestinal illness (they thought it was a norovirus, which has not been confirmed) and another quarantine... All the mass panic is underway? It’s really new for all cruise prices? If your skin is infected with a viral infection, quarantine on board ships will be necessary during the middle hours? Marvel. I think there are still a lot of “great” new products waiting for us.

However, the smut - keep calm and trim your head cold.

Good health to everyone!
