Ấn Độ cảnh báo kit xét nghiệm của Trung quốc thiếu chính xác

(truy cập từ https://danlambaovn.blogspot.com/2020/04/an-o-canh-bao-kit-xet-nghiem-cua-trung.html)

 Mẹ Nấm (Danlambao) Hội đồng nghiên cứu Y khoa Ấn Độ (ICMR) vừa đưa ra lời khuyến cáo cho các tiểu bang tại quốc gia này về việc sử dụng bộ kit xét nghiệm virus Vũ Hán của Trung quốc sau khi phát hiện kết quả thử nghiệm không chính xác.

Với việc ghi nhận hơn 20,471 ca nhiễm và 652 ca tử vong, Ấn Độ hiện phải vật lộn để ngăn chặn dịch bệnh do virus Vũ Hán gây ra đang lây lan trên diện rộng. Nỗ lực tăng cường xét nghiệm đại trà khiến Ấn Độ gặp khó khăn hơn khi các bộ dụng cụ xét nghiệm được đặt mua từ Trung quốc đến trễ hơn dự kiến 10 ngày. 

Ngày 21/4 nhà chức trách tiểu bang Rajasthan ra quyết định ngừng sử dụng kit xét nghiệm nhanh do Trung quốc sản xuất sau khi phát hiện kết quả cho ra không chính xác. 

Giám đốc sở y tế tiểu bang, Raghu Sharma, đã nói rằng với 168 mẫu xét nghiệm đã được xác nhận, các bộ dụng cụ cho tỷ lệ chính xác là 5,4%.

ICMR quyết định tạm ngừng sử dụng bộ xét nghiệm của Trung quốc sau khi có phản hồi từ 3 tiểu bang khác nhau.

Trong cuộc họp báo ngày 22/4, Raman R Gangakhedkar, người đứng đ��u Hội đồng nghiên cứu y học Ấn Độ (ICMR) cho biết:

"Chúng tôi đã nhận được khiếu nại từ một bang về độ chính xác của kit xét nghiệm, nên đã trao đổi với 3 bang và nhận thấy có khác biệt rất lớn về độ chính xác. Độ chính xác kết quả xét nghiệm các mẫu dương tính ở một số nơi là 6%, trong khi những nơi khác là 71%. Vấn đề này hoàn toàn không ổn chút nào khi sai số phát hiện lớn như vậy, chúng tôi cần điều tra thêm, ngay cả khi đây là bộ kit xét nghiệm thế hệ đầu tiên. Dịch bệnh mới xuất hiện khoảng 3 tháng rưỡi nên tất cả công nghệ sẽ được cải tiến theo thời gian, song chúng tôi không thể bỏ qua những phát hiện như thế này".

Ấn Độ không phải là quốc gia duy nhất gặp vấn đề với các bộ xét nghiệm. Trước đó, Cộng hòa Séc và Tây Ban Nha, Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ đã từng công bố độ thiếu chính xác của các lô hàng xuất xứ từ Trung quốc. Hòa Lan cũng là quốc gia phải gửi trả hơn 600.000 khẩu trang do Trung quốc sản xuất vì không đảm bảo an toàn. Pakistan cũng lên tiếng tố cáo Trung quốc gửi khẩu trang sản xuất từ vải đồ lót.

Có thể thấy, Trung cộng đã rất nỗ lực gây dựng hình ảnh "người cứu rỗi" sau khi đại dịch bùng phát từ thành phố Vũ Hán thông qua con đường "ngoại giao khẩu trang".

Tuy nhiên, virus Vũ Hán đã khiến cả thế giới nhận ra rằng đã đến lúc cần phải tẩy chay Trung cộng.

Follow 👉 @insider_folks for more updates A sign of massive worry, the health ministry in its brief, said 80 per cent of the COVID-19 patients are either asymptomatic or show mild symptoms. "On the basis of worldwide analysis, 80 per cent of the COVID-19 patients are asymptomatic or show mild symptoms. Around 15 per cent patients turn into severe cases and 5 per cent may become critical," Lav Agarwal, joint secretary in the health ministry, said at a daily press briefing. The asymptomatic patients may pass on the infection to other people, he earlier had said while stressing on maintaining social distancing in the community and infection prevention and control practices in hospital setups. Head of epidemiology and communicable diseases at Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) Dr Raman R Gangakhedkar said 80 out of 100 infected people do not show any symptoms. Officials said as of now, there is no plan to further widen the testing criteria. As part of a revised testing strategy, the government has started testing people with fever, cough and sore throat in hotspots or cluster areas and evacuees centres. Identifying such persons is extremely difficult, unless massive testing is done. Currently, the government is testing contacts of a positive person and those living in containment zones. Testing of asymptomatic persons started just recently. This has grown the call for testing of people at large scale to eliminate the probability of more people getting infected due to asymptomatic persons. Now that coronavirus testing has started, the number of people being infected by the novel virus is expected to increase sharply. On Saturday, Delhi reported 186 asymptomatic cases. Other states such as Punjab, Uttar Pradesh have also reported patients showing no visible symptoms. #coronavirus #covid19 #coronavirusupdates #CoronavirusLockdown #coronavirusoutbreak #delhi #punjab #doctors #patients #uttarpradesh #Gujarat #himachalpradesh https://www.instagram.com/p/B_Sf_4HgveD/?igshid=3ihgnsv3zjwp

No symptoms in 80% of Covid cases raise concerns

New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/no-symptoms-in-80-of-covid-cases-raise-concerns/

No symptoms in 80% of Covid cases raise concerns

New Delhi: With mounting evidence that asymptomatic Covid-19 cases are spreading the infection, India’s top medical research body is grappling with the problem posed by “silent spreaders” and examining the feasibility of starting ‘door-to-door’ surveillance to monitor and test older people at high risk who dont have symptoms. Some experts, however, believe this is a costly and unachievable objective.

“Of 100 people with infection, 80 do not have symptoms,” Raman R Gangakhedkar, chief epidemiologist, Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) said on Monday.

The new revelation of asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic infection in India has sparked concerns. While ICMR officials do not recommend mass testing in India, given the size and scale of the country, experts familiar with the development said the door-to-door surveillance model is being examined.

“It’s not easy to test everyone. But the model of door-to-door surveillance used for polio can be replicated here. The fact that India continues to be polio free indicates the robustness of the surveillance system and that can easily be done in Covid-19 too,” said a person with knowledge of the situation. He added that this plan is still at discussion stage and no final decision has been taken.

Under the model for polio in India, the vaccination teams go door to door, and check households.

‘MULTI-PRONGED APPROACH NEEDED’ The teams make sure to vaccinate those children who haven’t been so far. In case of Covid-19, the possibility of monitoring people aged 50 years and more is being considered. “The silent spreaders are unknowingly infecting others. There is a need to strictly monitor the 50 plus population, which has the majority of positive cases,” added this person. Any such exercise will take a long time and be expensive. Door-to-door surveillance will prove to be “costly and unachievable” in a country like India, said Dr Anoop Misra, chairman, Fortis C-DOC (Centre of Excellence For Diabetes, Metabolic Diseases and Endocrinology).

“The strategy could be multi-pronged for a country like India. We need to have intensive testing in areas which are hotspots, we can use random sampling in areas with less cases,” Misra said, adding that door-to door surveillance will not work. “It is just not possible. Some people will refuse and hide. We have to keep changing the strategy as transmission is certainly going up,” he said.

INVISIBLE SOURCES Globally, too, there is enough evidence that suggests that people who never develop symptoms can transmit the virus. Studies from around the world published in the past weeks reveal the spread by “invisible sources” as a fresh challenge in the fight against Covid-19. This makes it much harder to trace and isolate everyone with the disease before they start transmitting it to others. Public health experts say these invisible sources of contagion must be factored in while deciding when to begin rolling back physical distancing measures.

“Asymptomatic persons who tested positive in the antigen test, if shown to be truly positive for viral exposure by other criteria, may be a source of infection to others as long as they harbour the virus. Usually they are young, have a good immune response and may get rid of the virus quickly. But isolation till they do so is needed,” said K Srinath Reddy, president of Public Health Foundation of India.

SOCIAL DISTANCING Reddy said social or physical distancing should continue. “Since a population wide search through mega scale testing is neither advisable or affordable, possible danger from such persons must be minimised by continued social distancing, personal hygiene, masks and protection of the elderly. Persons with co-morbidities should be shielded from close contact with mobile members of the family,” he said. Earlier the WHO had said that pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic transmission of the new coronavirus was “relatively rare”. However, new studies from Japan, Italy, South Korea and Washington state — have suggested that silent spreaders can be just as dangerous to a community.

One coronavirus patient can infect 406 persons in no lockdown: ICMR

The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has estimated that one sick person could infect up to 406 others in 30 days if there was no lockdown, health ministry officials said on Tuesday as the number of confirmed coronavirus cases climbed to 4,789.

The ICMR study comes at a time when various state governments have requested the Centre to extend the 21-day lockdown beyond April 14.

The study talks about a scenario where 75 per cent of the lockdown is lifted. In such a situation, the same person would infect 2.5 persons.

“It is important to adopt lockdown measures, as it has been said that social distancing is the social vaccine. We request everyone to help us help you,” said Lav Agarwal, joint secretary, health ministry.

The ICMR had earlier estimated the R-naught, or R0, a unit which measures how many people can one patient infect, between 1.5 and 4. For its latest study, ICMR assumed the RO to be 2.5. One of the highest ROs was seen in measles — 10.

Raman R Gangakhedkar, head of ICMR’s epidemiology and communicable diseases division, told the media that 107,006 tests for Covid-19 have been conducted till date. Around 136 government labs are engaged in this exercise and another 59 private labs have been permitted to carry out these tests.

chart The health ministry has also devised a strategy to manage the Covid-19 patients based on the level of illness. For those with mild infection, a Covid care centre will be provided using lodges, hostels, stadium, upgrading existing quarantine facilities.

For a moderate-level infection, a dedicated Covid health centre with assured oxygen support will be put in place with separate exit and entry to stop the spread of infection. The severely infected patients will be put in Covid health hospitals with intensive care units, ventilators and oxygen support.
