Have questions on Covid19 recovery?
We answer the most important ones in this master thread. #stayaware

❓Is a #Covid test required to confirm recovery?

If you do not have any symptoms 14 days after confirmation of Covid, a repeat test IS NOT required.

1/n Image
❓When can I consider myself recovered from Covid?

➡️ 14 days after date of test.
➡️ 3 consecutive days of no symptoms.
➡️ If you had severe symptoms, consult your doctor for discharge criteria.
➡️ No need for a repeat RTPCR test.

2/n Image
❓Do I need to continue wearing masks inside my home after recovery?

No. One does not generally transmit the virus after Day 10 of infection. After 14 days of room quarantine, there is no need to wear a #mask inside the house.

It consists of specific parts of the SARS-Cov-2 antigen that are synthesized and harvested in a medium like yeast. The proteins themselves elicit weak immune response and they need an adjuvant added to augment the immune response.

Q&A from the doctor's desk 🩺 #stayaware

❓I am feeding my 9 month old baby. Can I take the vaccine?

Yes. As per latest MoHFW guidelines, lactating mothers can take the vaccine. Go ahead!

1/n
❓My mother turned negative for Covid 2 weeks back. When can she take the vaccine?

She can take the vaccine 3 months after recovery. Ensure she follows all Covid safety precautions now as well as after vaccination!

2/n
❓ Is there any side effect of taking vitamin C for over a month?

No, but there is no benefit as well. Maintaining balanced diet and drinking adequate water will be more beneficial than taking supplements, as long as you do not have specific deficiencies.

One of our most active initiatives right now is the free Medical Help group.

Few observations:
✅ Significant requests from non-urban locations.

✅ Together with drop in cases, query volume has dropped as well.

✅ Now most queries are on vaccination and mucormycosis.

1/3
✅ Large number of queries were on symptoms, knowing when to test, hospitalize, sos prescription etc.

✅ Considering that majority will recover from home, accessible teleconsultation services should be looked at as an effective tool going forward.

2/3
✅ We've seen significant impact with this initiative, especially for those from rural locations.

✅ Teleconsultation services should be made available in EVERY DISTRICT as a first line intervention.

Will our vaccination numbers rebound this month?

With 5.8Cr doses, May saw a 35% DROP in vaccine doses administered, compared to April.

As per official data, vaccine supply stood at 7.94Cr doses in May.

Then, why were we able to administer only 5.8Cr doses?

1/4 Image
📌 Data as on 29th May morning, shows that states had 2.15Cr doses available with them. Together with the 5.8Cr administered doses, this accounts for the 7.94Cr monthly supply figure.

📌 Does this mean that states have had stock, but vaccination was slow? Let's explore:

2/4 Image
As per official data 1.43Cr doses were available with states as of 22/05.
Between 22/05 and 28/05, 1.38Cr doses were administered by states: A high utilisation %.

If 2.15Cr doses were available as of 29/05, it points to 2Cr+ doses being supplied in the last week of May.

Our upcoming ventilation challenge:
Airborne transmission of Covid19 is now well acknowledged.

Key implications being:
📌 The virus travels beyond 6ft.
📌 Virus can remain suspended in air for longer.
📌 Beyond mask and distancing - VENTILATION becomes important.

1/7
❓Are we prepared to handle the ventilation challenge posed by Covid19?

Let's start with why proper ventilation is important:

➡️ Unlike droplets that fall to ground within 6 feet, aerosols are smaller particles that get suspended in the air.

2/7
➡️ Given their size and mass, aersols can travel over distances greater than 6ft, as well as remain suspended in a room. The concentration of aersols in a room can increase over time, leading to increased risk of transmission.

📣 This is where ventilation becomes critical.
