More than 1.94 million Corona cases in the US, so far 3.39 million people have lost their lives

The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that the coronavirus is not the last epidemic in the world. Efforts to improve human health cannot be successful without climate change and the protection of nature. WHO chief Tedros Gabriess said that in the fight against Corona, spending money alone would not do anything. We must also prepare for the future.

“We use the money to deal with a disaster and when that disaster is over, we forget about it,” he said. We stop taking steps to avoid similar problems in the future.

The number of Corona patients in the world has increased to 8.07 crore. More than 56.8 million people have recovered. More than 17.64 lakh people have lost their lives so far, according to www.worldometers.info/coronavirus

The New York Times said Diabetes and Blood Pressure Deaths Rise in Corona in America

 Welcome to mbctalk,

            The year 2020 in America has been unusual in terms of death statistics. There have been 356,000 more deaths here than in any other year since the Corona epidemic began, but not all deaths have been directly linked to the Corona epidemic. About a quarter more deaths than usual were due to causes such as diabetes, Alzheimer's, high blood pressure, and pneumonia. The data came from an analysis by the New York Times of the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention.

Some of these deaths may have been indirectly related to Covid-19, according to the report. Corona increased the burden on the health care system and other patients did not receive the same treatment as before. At the same time, the death toll has risen due to the deteriorating economic situation of families due to the epidemic. The death toll from diabetes this year was 15 percent higher than normal. 12 percent more deaths from Alzheimer's.

Steven Wolfe, director of society and health at Virginia Commonwealth University, said many people were confused about whether to spend on medicine or food or to keep the roof over their heads. He warned that there would be many people who would save themselves from the epidemic but the impact of the epidemic on their health and income would continue to plague them in the days to come and lead to death.

BELGIUM HAS THE HIGHEST NUMBER OF DEATHS PER 10 LAKH POPULATION, FOLLOWED BY INDIA AT 75

In terms of population, Belgium has the highest number of deaths per 1 million population. As of Dec. 14, there were 1,563 deaths per 1 million in Belgium. Italy and Spain are also in the top 5 in this regard.

Oxford's statement: Two full doses of the Covishield vaccine are very effective; The outcome of the first one and a half dose was questioned

 Welcome to mbctalk,

                   Two full doses of the Corona vaccine (Covishield) from Oxford University and AstraZeneca are responding well. Oxford University gave this information on Thursday night. The university said in a statement: "Earlier we did a trial by giving one full and one-half dose. I.e., the candidate was given one and a half doses. Now full doses were given. The results were very good.

About a month ago, AstraZeneca and Oxford admitted to a manufacturing error in the vaccine. The results of the third phase of the vaccine trial were then announced, with different results.

TWO FULL DOSES ARE MUST

Oxford gave new information about its vaccine in a statement released on Thursday. That said, we gave our candidate two full doses of the vaccine during the trial. The results were good. Earlier we gave one full and one-half dose, compared to which two full doses proved to be very effective.

The company's latest statement comes at a time when it has admitted to a different outcome in recent days. Experts then also questioned its data analysis. In a new statement, Oxford acknowledged that more work was needed to confirm the outcome of the vaccine.

REVEALED THREE-PHASE INFORMATION

Oxford announced the results of Phase 1 to Phase 3 trials for the second time in a month. This, however, does not refer to the one-and-a-half doses previously given. The university says trials to give one and a half doses were not pre-determined. Now Oxford's focus is on giving two full doses for its vaccine. He says experimenting with one and a half and two doses was part of his strategy, for which questions have already been raised, as it is natural for differences in doses to result in differences.

Oxford said the results from booster doses showed that antibodies were formed faster than single doses. Standard doses must be used.

In Sweden,The Ice Hotel is built every year and becomes a river in five months.

 Welcome to mbctalk,

The hotel is built every winter and after five months it becomes a river. The hotel, first built in 1989, is celebrating its 31st founding day.

Hotel founder Youngwe Bergquist and creative director Luca Roncoroni have created 12 bedrooms, ice bars, and ice sculptures in 6 types of suites this year in view of the Corona epidemic. 

The owner says the hotel is 200 km from the Arctic Circle. Far away is the Torn River.

Temperatures here hover around -18 to -40 degrees. Every year 70,000 people come to this hotel for holidays, but it seems that only a limited number of people will come due to the epidemic. So, this year they have only made 6 suits.

The nightly rent of this hotel is 4 thousand Swedish kronor (approximately Rs. 35 thousand). 24 artists from Sweden completed the hotel in about 18 days.

The hotel owner claims that the ice hotel will melt by April 11, 2021. Last year they built 12 suites here.

The biggest challenge for America is to persuade the elderly to get vaccinated, fearing side effects or no side effects.

 Welcome to mbctalk,

Pfizer's corona vaccine has begun to be used in the United States. Modern vaccines are also expected to receive regulatory approval soon. Both vaccines are claimed to be 95% effective and safe. 

However, persuading the elderly to be vaccinated is proving challenging for the US Department of Health.

A member of the advisory committee that approved the vaccine also said that the vaccine should not be given to the elderly. Committee member Dr. Helen Kip Talbot believes that only emergency use of the vaccine has been approved.

It is not usually tested the way the vaccine is tested. However, according to other experts on the committee, the vaccine is safe and the elderly should not be alarmed by the vaccine.

Emergency permits raised fears among half of the Americans

The vaccine is not currently a regular permit but an emergency permit, which is feared by half of Americans. According to a survey by Virginia Commonwealth University, only 46.9% of people said they would definitely take the vaccine. 

Approximately 60% of people are willing to take a dose of the vaccine if it gets regular permission.

is covid-19 vaccine is best option to fight corona?

 Welcome to mbctalk,

                                       

                       Many people want an injection as soon as possible, while others are worried about putting something unknown into their bodies.

Safety trials begin in the lab, with tests and research on cells and animals, before moving on to human studies.

The UK has started the first doses of the Pfizer/Biotech coronavirus vaccine.

As long as the safety data from the labs are good, scientists can check that the vaccine or treatment is effective too.

That means tests on large numbers of volunteers – more than thousands of individuals. Some are given the vaccine and the other half a dummy or placebo.

The researchers and participants are not told which group is which, until after the results have been analyzed.

All of the data are checked and verified independently.

The COVID-19 vaccine trials have happened very fast, but they haven't skipped any steps.

The Oxford/AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine trial was voluntarily put on hold at one stage to investigate why one participant - out of many thousands - had died.

Pfizer/Biotech’s vaccine uses bits of genetic code to cause an immune response, and is called an mRNA vaccine.

It does not alter human cells but presents the body with instructions to build immunity to COVID-19.

There is no way to know how COVID-19 will affect you. And if you get sick, you could spread the disease to friends, family, and others around you.

Clinical trials of COVID-19 vaccines must first show they are safe and effective before any vaccine can be authorized or approved for use.

Getting COVID-19 may offer some natural protection, known as immunity. But experts don’t know how long this protection lasts, and the risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19 far outweighs any benefits of natural immunity. COVID-19 vaccination will help protect you by creating an antibody response without having to experience sickness.

Both natural immunity and immunity produced by a vaccine are important aspects of COVID-19 that experts are trying to learn more about.
