"On top of the number of deaths and injuries caused by the conflict itself, WHO expects there will be many more deaths due to outbreaks, lack of access to food and water, and disruptions to essential health services, including immunization."

Maandag start #WorldImmunizationWeek, speciale aandacht voor vaccinatiebereidheid en de 7 aspecten ervan wat kan helpen met begrijpen waarom mensen wel/niet vaccineren en wat daar ten grondslag ligt. Dit geldt voor algemene bevolking
💉🙋🏽‍♀️🙋🏽‍♂️ Image
1/Gretigheid
Zeer graag een vaccin willen vanwege de kans op ziekte en sterfte tijdens een uitbraak. Het kan omslaan tot ‘wanhoop’ wanneer er tekorten zijn. Het laatste zagen we bij aanvang van COVID-19 💉en bij de tekorten tijdens de #MPX uitbraak in zomer ’22. Image
2/Bereidheid
Bereid zijn om te 💉-en om risico op sterfte, (ernstige) ziekte te voorkomen, bewust zijn van de voordelen en effecten van de interventie. Grote bereidheid zie je bij hep-b, hep-a, gele koorts, polio, tetanus, en vele kindervaccinaties Image

مصدر مسؤول بـ #وزارة_الصحة_المصرية، قال إن الأسبوعين المقبلين سيكونان حاسمين في المنحنى الوبائي لفيروس #كورونا المستجد بـ #مصر

وتحتفل مصر هذه الفترة بمجموعة من المناسبات الدينية كـ #عيد_القيامة المجيد و #شم_النسيم و #عيد_الفطر_المبارك، وكل هذه الاحتفالات حال عدم اتباع الإجراءات الاحترازية اللازمة للوقاية من فيروس #كورونا خلالها، سيترتب عليها زيادة أعداد الإصابات بشكل أكبر بكثير من الفترة الحالية
وتابع مسؤول #وزارة_الصحة_المصرية: "لا بد من أخذ الهند والتحورات التي حدثت للفيروس فيها بعين الاعتبار، خاصة وأنهم فتحوا البلاد وتخلوا عن الإجراءات الوقائية واحتلفوا بمناسبات دينية، دون الأخذ بالاعتبار وجود فيروس #كورونا مما نتج عنه زيادة إصابات وتحورات الفيروس بشكل أخطر

مع بدء حملات التطعيم ضد #كورونا في مختلف أنحاء العالم، طرح البعض سؤالا حول فعالية الحصول على جرعة واحدة في الحماية من الإصابة بـ #كوفيد_19

دراسة بريطانية تجيب.. al-a.in/tssXoBB
وأفادت دراسة بريطانية، بأن الأشخاص الذين لم يتعرّضوا للإصابة بمرض #كوفيد_19 من قبل، لا يزالون معرضين للعدوى بسلالاته بعد حصولهم على الجرعة الأولى من لقاح فايزر/بيونتك الأمريكي الألماني، ما يعزز الحاجة إلى أنظمة تطعيم كاملة وسريعة

#اللقاحات_تقربنا_أكثر #WorldImmunizationWeek Image
وقال الباحثون إن أولئك الذين تعرّضوا سابقاً لحالات خفيفة أو غير مصاحبة لأعراض #كوفيد_19 "تعززت الوقاية لديهم بشكل كبير" بعد الحصول على جرعة واحدة ضد السلالات التي تمّ رصدها أولاً في بريطانيا وجنوب أفريقيا

في إطار سعي الجميع إلى العثور على علاج لفيروس كورونا المستجد (#كوفيد_19)، أو لقاح للوقاية منه، ظهرت الآن حقن مصنوعة الشوكولاتة في بلجيكا

وتعمل شركة بلجيكية لصنع الشوكولاتة، كانت تضع العام الماضي كمامات بيضاء على حلوى في هيئة أرانب، على صنع قوالب كبيرة من الشوكولاتة في شكل محقن لمواكبة الدعوات للمشاركة في تلقى اللقاح

ومع تكثيف بلجيكا لحملتها للتطعيم ضد مرض كوفيد-19، تقوم شركة (كاكاوتري) المتخصصة في صناعة الحلوى بالترويج لتلقى اللقاح وكذلك للفوائد الصحية الطبيعية للشوكولاتة وفقا لرؤيتها الخاصة

وقال الباحثون إن عددا قليلا جدا ممن أصيبوا بـ كوفيد-19 من المسنين وممن يعانون من ضعف عام يدخلون إلى المستشفى ويتوفون حتى بعد الحصول على الجرعة الأولى من لقاحات فايزر أو أسترازينيكا، لكن ذلك لا يعني أن اللقاحات غير فعالة

وأضاف الباحثون، أثناء عرضهم بيانات ميدانية حول مجموعة من المصابين بكوفيد-19 في المستشفيات في بريطانيا، أن النتائج أظهرت نوعا ما "فشلا للقاحات" لكن ذلك لم يكن "مستبعدا"
