Ministry of Health and Family Welfare press release giving latest Covid inputs

*Ministry of Health and Family Welfare press release  giving latest Covid inputs*
The fears expressed earlier regarding the spread of Covid19 in India for the last 3-4 weeks were finally confirmed today in the press release issued by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW).Some of the salient points mentioned in the press release today:.1. INSACOG has detected 771 variants of concerns (VOCs) in a total of 10787 positive samples sequenced. The distributions are as follows :UK (B.1.1.7) variant – 736. South African (B.1.351) variant – 34Brazilian (P.1) variant – 1.2. These variants of concerns, which are much more infectious (2-6 times than the original Wuhan strain) are now circulating in 18 states of India..3. Additionally, new local variants of concerns specific to India have been detected. Sequencing has found that the fraction of samples with the E484Q and L452R mutations are much higher now.  .4. The N440K variant that is associated with immune escape has been found in 6% samples from Kerala, 33% of samples from Andhra Pradesh and in 51% samples from Telangana. .5. All the above mutated strains circulating in India now make the virus much more dangerous. The mutations, in addition to significantly increased transmissibility, help the virus escape our immune system, meaning that many who have been previously infected or vaccinated “might” get re-infected. .6. Given that these dangerous strains are now already circulating in 18 states, it is just a matter of time before the Covid19 cases might start to increase in all states of India. Brazil has borne the brunt of the P1 strain where almost all its hospitals and health system have now collapsed, with more than 3,200 deaths every single day. .Given that 7% of the strains circulating in the country are variants of concern (771 out of 10,787), it should wake us up. The UK variant and other VOCs ripped apart countries after countries, pushing them into larger and dangerous consecutive waves of infections and deaths. While we may again see lesser deaths due to our demographics, increased cases of Covid19 will make things worse. .We are already close to 50,000 new cases each day.
Do not let your guard down.Avoid crowded places.Avoid unnecessary travel.Keep wearing your mask in public places.Take necessary precautions.
Yes, caution & due precautions are inescapable facts that we all have to follow in the coming months🏼
The virus is back, this time with more energy, tactics and camouflage.We don’t coughNo fever, it’s joint pain, weakness,Loss of appetite and Covid pneumonia!Of course, the death rate is higher, it takes less time to get to the extreme. Sometimes no symptoms … let’s be careful … The strain is not domiciled in our nasopharyngeal region! It directly affects the lungs, which means window periods are shortened.I have seen a number of patients without fever, but an x-ray report shows moderate chest pneumonia!The nasal swab is often negative for COVID19!
There are more and more false pharyngeal nasal tests COVID19) … which means that the virus spreads directly to the lungs causing acute respiratory distress due to viral pneumonia! This explains why it has become acute and more fatal !!!

Be careful, avoid crowded places, wear a face mask, wash our hands often.
*WAVE* more deadly than the first.  So we have to be very careful and *take every precaution.* Please become an alert communicator among friends and family …

*STATISTICS TO AMAZE YOU …*

*STATISTICS TO AMAZE YOU …*
*The number of deaths in the world in the last 3 months of 2020*
    *3,14,687 : Corona virus*
      *3,40,584 : Malaria*
     *3,53,696 : suicide*
     *3,93,479 : road accidents*
     *2,40,950 : HIV* 
     *5,58,471 : alcohol*
     *8,16,498 : smoking*
 *11,67,714: Cancer*
 *Then do you think Corona is dangerous?* 
 Or
*is the purpose of the media campaign to settle the trade war between China and America* 
or
*to reduce financial markets to prepare the stage of financial markets for mergers and acquisitions* 
or 
*to sell US Treasury bonds to cover the fiscal deficit in them*
Or
*Is it a Panic created by Pharma companies to sell their products like sanitizer, masks, medicine etc.*
*Do not Panic & don’t kill yourself with unecessary fear. This posting is to balance your newsfeed from posts that caused fear and panic.*
 *33,38,724 People are sick with Coronavirus at the moment, of which 32,00,000 are abroad. This means that if you are not in or haven’t recently visited any foreign country, this should eliminate 95% of your concern.*
*If you do contact Coronavirus, this still is not a cause for panic because:*
*81% of the Cases are MILD*
*14% of the Cases are MODERATE*
*Only 5% of the Cases are CRITICAL*
*Which means that even if you do get the virus, you are most likely to recover from it.*
*Some have said, “but this is worse than SARS and SWINEFLU!”  SARS had a fatality rate of 10%, Swine flu 28% while COVID-19 has a fatality rate of 2%*
*Moreover, looking at the ages of those who are dying of this virus, the death rate for the people UNDER 55 years of age is only 0.4%*
*This means that: if you are under 55 years of age and don’t live out of India – you are more likely to win the lottery (which has a 1 in 45,000,000 chance)**Let’s take one day ie 1 May as an example when Covid 19 took lives of 6406 in the world.**On the same day:*
*26,283 people died of Cancer*
*24,641 people died of Heart Disease*
*4,300 people died of Diabetes*
*Suicide took 28 times more lives than the virus did.*
*Mosquitoes kill 2,740 people every day, HUMANS kill 1,300 fellow humans every day, and Snakes kill 137 people every day. (Sharks kill 2 people a year)*
*What say you ??*
*SO DO THE DAILY THINGS TO SUPPORT YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM , PROPER HYGIENE AND DO NOT LIVE  IN FEAR*.
Join to Spread *Hope* instead of Fear. 
*The Biggest Virus is not Corona Virus but Fear!*
*SHARE TO STOP PANIC .*
