British newspapers continued to follow the Corona epidemic and its aftermath, examining the causes of the epidemic being infected a second time, and warning the World Health Organization against lifting the full restrictions imposed on the epidemic.
The Daily Telegraph published a report by her correspondent, Rosina Sabor, titled "A Corona Epidemic Affecting Recipients of It Again, Dissipating Hopes of Immunity."
Sabor said that the medical reports received from South Korea indicate the infection of numbers of patients who recovered from the Corona epidemic in the past, noting that it had diagnosed 91 cases of people who were infected with the virus for the second time after they recovered from it in the past, which gives many unanswered questions about scientists understanding the nature of the virus New and how to interact with human cells.
Sabor points out that this matter casts a heavy shadow on the international community, as most countries think that their people will be able to form an autoimmune virus a short time after its spread, in order to prevent the recurrence of the outbreak again, which is now evident to be unreal.
Sabor says that the new Korean reports raise fears that the virus is active inside the patients' bodies after their recovery has been announced, noting that the Korean Ministry of Health has sent a specialized medical team from the epidemic control center to Daegu, the country most affected by the epidemic, to investigate the causes of dozens of people infected with the virus after their recovery. .
Sabor added that the Korean reports reveal that most of the cases that suffer from the second infection do not have any symptoms while some symptoms appear on other cases, which makes it difficult to determine a specific pattern for the injured while awaiting the final results of the health investigation in Daegu next week.
The report quotes Jeong Eun Kyung, director of the South Korean epidemic control center, as suggesting the hypothesis that the virus resumes its activity again in some of the infected people after the symptoms of the infection have ended and doctors thought they had recovered, while the hypothesis that they would be infected is unlikely again.
The report refers to other hypotheses of some experts to explain the phenomenon, where some view that “there is the possibility of corruption in the analysis tools, which leads to errors in the results, while others believe that the remnants of the virus may remain in the bodies of recovering patients without posing a danger to them, but the danger remains that they can pass the infection on to others. ”
The report shows that South Korea was seen as a success story in the face of the epidemic, with 7,000 people living with HIV recovering in a short period of time after being the largest epidemic out of China.
He adds that fears in South Korea are increasing from a new wave of the epidemic due to the second infections, quoting a Ministry of Health spokesman saying, "Usually a person is considered to have recovered from the epidemic if the tests show that they are free of the virus twice within 24 hours, but what is happening now reveals the presence of the virus in the bodies of Recovering again during a slightly longer period means that it can exist for a longer period than we think.
“Don't lift the restrictions.”
The Guardian published a report for both Peter Beaumont in London and Sam Jones in Madrid, titled "The World Health Organization warns of a fatal return to the virus if the restrictions are lifted early".
The report says that the warning came at a time when the number of injured people in the world exceeded one million and 600 thousand cases, while the number of deaths rose to more than 100,000 people, which prompted experts to warn against the urgent lifting of restrictions in some countries.
The report points to the warning of one of the largest American health experts, Anthony Fuchi, against the hasty lifting of the procedures to close the country, which sparked a major dispute between him and President Donald Trump, who is in a hurry to lift all restrictions and the return of the wheel.
