Worldwide COVID-19 surges: Professor A. Sharman advises Almaty inhabitants to rigorously follow quarantine rules
Hey there! Let's talk about Professor Almaz Sharman's recent comments on the ongoing COVID-19 situation, as reported by Almaty.tv.
In an official interview, Professor Sharman, the big cheese at the Academy of Preventive Medicine of Kazakhstan, shed some light on the worldwide second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. He strenuously urged Almaty residents to comply with health and safety protocols in the face of this global threat.
He pointed out that different nations have handled the pandemic differently, with some countries like New Zealand, Mongolia, South Korea, and Singapore managing to keep the situation under control, while countries like Italy, Spain, and the United States have plunged headfirst into a crisis, resulting in significant loss of life and health.
As winter approaches and countries like Argentina, Chile, South Africa, and Australia move into their spring, the situation in the southern hemisphere is particularly concerning. Sharman also raised concerns about a new phenomenon – "post-COVID syndrome," where individuals who have recovered from the virus later experience complications such as prolonged fatigue, neurological, cardiac, and other issues.
"The strength of the second wave of the epidemic, if it occurs in Kazakhstan, will depend largely on us," Sharman warned, emphasizing the importance of social distancing, wearing masks, and maintaining good hygiene to reduce the impact of any potential outbreaks.
While there wasn't much data on Kazakhstan-specific trends available, recent studies suggest that global vaccines may help reduce severe symptoms associated with COVID-19 infection, and international efforts are being made to promote equitable response mechanisms and collective health security in preparation for future outbreaks. However, the fight against COVID-19 is far from over, and ongoing challenges must be addressed to fully contain the virus.
